From time to time I find it necessary to connect to my University’s vpn network and I have to use the Cisco VPN client in order to do it. Ever since updating my machine from Ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10, running the VPN client causes it to crash in the most horrible way. It locks up completely and various lights such as Caps Lock flash on and off repeatedly. The only way to recover from this is to switch my machine off, reboot it and never run the Cisco VPN under any circumstances.
