Kernel panic minutes after suspend

Asked by Jodie

After resuming from a suspend, I will experience a kernel panic.
This can be reproduced every time by doing the following steps:
1. Suspend to Ram.
2. Press a key to wake it up.
3. On a console type "sudo apt-get install mc".
4. The package will download correctly, but as soon as it attempts to install it will cause a kernel panic.

These steps are just a way to consistently reproduce the issue on my laptop, it will usually happen after surfing around on the Internet.

I am using Kubuntu 9.04 64 bit fresh install, and I have added:
linux-backports-modules-2.6.28-11-generic-2.6.28-11.12(amd64)
I am using a wireless WEP Hex encryption.

I tested this with The latest 64 bit ubuntu, using a live USB.
I performed all the updates through the update app.
I suspended, and once I restarted from suspend, the wireless did not start properly. It asked me for my key again.
So then I did:
1. sudo ifdown wlan0
2. sudo modprobe -r ath9k
3. sudo modprobe ath9k
4. On the Gnome network manager I disabled and reenabled the wireless.
Then the wireless was working once again.

I then tried to go to the prompt and it mentioned to enable universe.

So I went and enabled universe. It told me that my packages were all out of date now.
Next I allowed it to update the packages. Once the packages were downloaded it froze blinking the cursor again.
