startx causes wireless card's irq #11 to be disabled

Specs on my system:

wireless card:  Internal Broadcom BCM4306 (via ndiswrapper bcmwl5a.inf)
kernel:  2.6.17-ARCH

When I boot into Arch, I have it set up to use my wireless card to acquire an IP from my router which is WEP encrypted.  This works.  Here is the output of dmesg when it works:

Sep 10 14:22:14 myhost ndiswrapper version 1.23 loaded (preempt=yes,smp=yes)
Sep 10 14:22:14 myhost ndiswrapper: driver bcmwl5a (Broadcom,07/17/2003, 3.30.15.0) loaded
Sep 10 14:22:14 myhost ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:09.0[A] -> Link [LNKA] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11
Sep 10 14:22:14 myhost ndiswrapper: using irq 11
Sep 10 14:22:14 myhost wlan0: vendor: ''
Sep 10 14:22:14 myhost wlan0: ethernet device 00:90:4b:6b:79:1c using NDIS driver bcmwl5a, 14E4:4320.5.conf
Sep 10 14:22:14 myhost wlan0: encryption modes supported: WEP; TKIP with WPA; AES/CCMP with WPA
Sep 10 14:22:16 myhost ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
Sep 10 14:22:17 myhost ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready

Now, when I issue a startx, this is the output of dmesg:

Sep 10 14:22:21 myhost dhcpcd[3379]: infinite IP address lease time. Exiting

Disabling IRQ #11

Please let me know if there is anything else I should post.

Thanks.
