Yup, maybe the log file didn't tell what happen, i don't know where should i
find good clue. /var/log/messages didn't tell what happen too. Only some info
about :

As you can see, on 15:52:48 i should reboot my system because that completly
lock up.

I'm sure this is somehow related to wl kernel module. I boot up my laptop,
login to it, doing nothing, NM automagicly fire up wifi connection ... asked
about wpa passphrase, i enter it correctly (yes i'm sure), NM asked again, i
enter it again (3-4 times still not success), suddenly system freeze.

After reboot about 3-4 times, i gave up, switch back to ndiswrapper, my system
are usable again now.

Please guide me to find more clue. 
Thanks in advance.
