Hi...
I've been bitten by this bug:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=139270&p=1
on my netbook.
From what I read, ath9k bug is corrected in 3.3.2, and ath5k bug is
still present and a couple patches are needed.
Are we too late to have a patched 3.3.2 in Cauldron ?
ath9k fix is in our kernel-3.3.1-2.mga2
New kernel will land on Cauldron after beta3 is out
Thanks, good to know ;) !
Not sure if this is relevant but I had the same problem and looks like
the solution for the laptop I was servicing was this (I left this on the
thread that I had started on the user mailing list[1]):
Just letting people know of the fix for this unit.
The laptop's owner returned it so that I could work on a possible fix to
the wifi connection. After some testing and trouble shooting, I deleted
the NetworkManager through the MCC which allowed a more reliable
connection and I also created this file in etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf
with the line "options ath9k nohwcrypt=1" which for some unknown reason
made for an even more solid connection <-- I found this recommendation
on a thread somewhere but lost the location.
The laptop now connects to the internet and does not turn itself out,
and, it no longer cuts in and out randomly.
Cheers,
Marc
