Hi, I bought this USB audio dongle and it works fine in Windows and in a Dell desktop running Ubuntu 10.04 64 bits server.

But it freezes my Dell Insiron 1420N laptop running Ubuntu 10.04 32 bits LTS.

Modprobe goes to 100% CPU usage and then the computer freezes. I tried multiple times and I get the same thing.

A similar USB audio dongle gave me the same problem.

Intriguingly, I have yet another dongle that works fine.

Any ideas?

I will probably try a LIVE Ubuntu, install a 64 bit system, other versions, etc, but before this time-consuming pathway, I would like to know if other people had the same problem and how they solved it.

Thanks.
