Title:
RTL8187SE driver lacks Multicast Support
Status in Linux:
Expired
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
I greatfuly recognized that Ubuntu Jaunty has support vor Realteks
RTL8102 Chipset, found in many Netbooks based on MSI's U100.
unfourtunley the Driver is in an unofficial - internal - Beta Stage.
(see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/246141)
One Issue that really troubles me is lacking support for Unicast. This
renders everything thats based on MDNS useless.
Like: Gnome-Networkshare, Vino, Hotssh, Rythmbox Musicsharing, Avahi-Tools,
and so on....
Symthoms:
1.) You can ping an other Network.Computer and you also can make use of his
services (like webdav), but avahi-discover, can not find them.
2.) Other Computers can not find you with avahi-discover, but can make use of
you services if they know your IP and TCP-Port.
3.) Broadcast ping -b 255.255.255.255 does not work for me, but im not sure
about this.
I don't know if anything like a Realtek-Bugtracker exists, to report the Bug
to Realtek. So i belive that it is a good idea to have a Bugreport in
Launchpad, so that other Users with this Issue have some Information on it.
