Summary0004034: kernel oops on Surface Pro 3
Description

I've installed Kali onto my Surface pro 3. Booting up to it is fine. Issue seems to be when I connect to the wireless I get a kernel error after a few minutes. This is what I see: https://puu.sh/vXi6s/83f29c4907.jpg At this point it's completely frozen and have to reboot the device.

I have tried kali-linux 2017.1 AMD64 and currently running kali-linux-2017-W21 AMD64 (Kernel version 4.9.25-1kali1 2017-05-04)

Steps To Reproduce

Boot device with live USB. Connect to wireless network. Try to run apt-get install openvas.

Additional Information

This seems to happen after a few minutes on the wireless. I always get the issue in both GUI and CLI. Even just running basic apt-get commands cause this. Same with using FireFox for a while will produce the same error.

I'm sorry, this is likely a kernel bug and we are not kernel developers. You have to bring this issue with Linux developers... the picture you saw us does not clearly incriminate the wifi driver (contrary to what you seem to say) but you can still try to get in touch with the maintainer of the wifi driver that you use.

You should be ready to first test with the latest upstream kernel though (4.12).
