[Bug 1341275] Re: [Gigabyte GB-BXi7-4470R] Kernel panic in rtl8821ae
The latest kernel 3.16 driver doesn't Panic but it still has driver failures that render the driver and device unable to scan and find networks. No need for a bisect since this driver is in staging, and is a work-in- progress. For Trusty 3.13 kernel it may be necessary to disable building the module since there is nothing we can do downstream to make it work.

David Coles, the next step is to fully reverse commit bisect the kernel in order to identify the fix commit.

[Bug 1341275] Re: [Gigabyte GB-BXi7-4470R] Kernel panic in rtl8821ae
David Coles, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from the very top line at the top of the page (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-3.16-rc6 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Low => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1341275 Title: [Gigabyte GB-BXi7-4470R] Kernel panic in rtl8821ae To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1341275/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Christopher, I"m reopening this ticket as it appears that the updating the bios did not resolve the issue. As soon as wireless is enabled in Network Manager the system kernel panics with the same rtl8821ae_rx_query_desc+0x1d5/0xa50 RIP. Please let me know I can assist in any way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1341275 Title: [Gigabyte GB-BXi7-4470R] Kernel panic in rtl8821ae To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1341275/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1341275] Re: [Gigabyte GB-BXi7-4470R] Kernel panic in rtl8821ae
Hi Christopher, Looks like that did the trick. I can successfully boot the trusty- updates kernel: $ uname -a Linux dcoles-brix 3.13.0-30-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 4 21:40:53 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date F5 06/23/2014 Little tricky to do the BIOS update since the image is now too big for a FDD image. Best bet seems to be putting a FreeDOS image on a USB stick, copying over the BIOS updater files and running it off that.
