With 19 more months of support for 16.04 (and the 4.4 kernel), consider the 8723bs drivers in the trusty-chestersmill repository ( http://oem.archive.canonical.com/updates/ trusty-chestersmill public) These drivers worked fine through the Ubuntu 4.4.0-142 release (when the API change broke many drivers). The fix for that problem may be much simpler than changing the lwfinger or hadess drivers.

carlix, as per https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/rtl819x given this driver is in staging, it's not available in the linux-stable tree which Ubuntu typically pulls from (but testing it with the driver installed simultaneously provides evidence of stability with it). So, there are two things that would need to happen here. One is for this staging driver to be considered for inclusion into Ubuntu. Second is for this driver to be considered for inclusion into linux-stable, where it would be pulled into Ubuntu as a matter of course. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium => High ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged ** Tags removed: kernel-bug-exists-upstream-4.7-rc4 ** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream-4.7-rc5 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1581711 Title: 024C:B723 Need support for Realtek Wifi card rtl8723bs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1581711/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
