@Pablo,

The 'wapf=4' parameter is applicable ONLY to 'asus-nb-wmi' driver. What
you have created will simply be ignored as this parameter does not exist
for rtlwifi driver.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1367882] Re: linux-firmware-nonfree doesn't properly install firmware.

2015-08-06 Thread varunendra
The recommended method now is sudo apt-get install
firmware-b43-installer, if a temporary connection can be arranged to
download the firmware from internet.

Alternatively, if the target system can't be connected to internet, the
entire b43 firmware directory can also be extracted and copied from the
linux-firmware-nonfree package itself. That version of the package still
contains the firmware files, only is configured such that it does not
install them in its normal operation. However, the firmware files have
been removed from version 1.16 of the linux-firmware-nonfree package.

Instructions for the alternative (offline) method above in short -

* Download version 1.14 from here : 
http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/linux-firmware-nonfree
* Copy it to the target system and right-click  open it with whatever archive 
manager program you have installed (e.g. file-roller, a.k.a. Archive Manager)
* Extract the entire b43 directory from the package, for example, on your 
Desktop.
* Copy it to your /lib/firmware directory - sudo cp -r Desktop/b43 
/lib/firmware
* Reboot

This method is no better than the one in the post #38 linked by woofer
above, but an official package is more trusted than an attachment by
some user.

Xprogrammer,

Could you give us the pastebin link to you full wireless_script report?
: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=13024222

In case it is not directly related to the bug, an Ubuntu Forums thread
(or IRC channel #ubuntu) may be a better place for further
troubleshooting, if possible at all.

2014-09-28 Thread varunendra
Hello Graham,

I've been following this bug for quite sometime, just out of curiosity.
However, many of the comment posts here look like common issues that may
or may not be related to this particular bug. Yours sounds similar. Oh,
but not really same as #205 (Venkatesha). His was not connecting at all
(dmesg suggests a possible Network Manager bug/confusion where it hops
between different APs of same SSID before a connection is finally
established), while yours at least seems to connect initially. I can't
find your attached dmesg (forgot to attach?).

I am actively involved in wifi troubleshooting at ubuntu forums, and
this kind of problem, where network (wifi or ethernet) seems to be
connected but browsing internet fails. I'm not yet sure about the exact
reason but it seems to be like some sort of issue with 'resolvconf'
package that is supposed to take care of DNS configuration. In many of
such issues, the connection works as soon as 'resolvconf' package is
removed or NM (IP, Subnet, Gateway, DNS, or atleast DNS) is manually
configured instead of leaving it to DHCP.

Not saying yours must be same, but it *sounds* like above, so the DNS
issue is worth checking. Just try to ping first your gateway
(AP/router), if successful, try pinging any internet address, for
example Google's DNS servers 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. If you get ping reply,
it is definitely a DNS issue.

As for the disconnection issue, I frequently need to set driver
parameters fwlps=N and ips=N with almost all realtek drivers these
days. I know these options are there to save power on wireless card,
thus disabling them may cause unnecessary power drain issue, but
disabling them with values N frequently seems to solve disconnection
issues.

Then there is another issue where the Power Management on wireless
kicks in automatically and above two options are either not available or
don't help. Common with Intel driver, but I think I have seen that with
one of the Realtek drivers as well (recently, but don't remember which
one). There are other ways to keep it turned off.

I'm posting this just because I think people posting here should be
aware that there are also some common issues out there that may be
solved by some other ways. For detailed steps on trying the above
possible fixes, just check out the Networking  Wireless section of
Ubuntu Forums. One may find a similar problem with a solution there. Of
course they can also post their own thread asking for help, with
reference to this bug if they have the same card.

Good Luck,
Varun

 It's in the upper right of the page as dmesg.log.

Yup, found that now, a place I never noticed before.

Also, your problem may indeed be related to this bug, I'm just not sure
and I know there are some other reasons too leading to same or similar
behaviour. So potentially is the keyword in your post above. :)

I couldn't notice any obvious culprit in the dmesg log. But then I'm
just a hobbyist, not a pro.

2014-09-10 Thread varunendra
And I very seriously believe that it is the /DEBIAN/control file
within the .deb package that is causing the trouble.

Line #15 in it seems to be an accidental copy-paste, confusing dpkg (a
super long Modalias line). Needs to be fixed (deleted) immediately
before plenty of more The update broke my system threads pop up, as if
all those brand new Ethernet troubles were not enough.

Hmm.. so I guess we finally completed a full circle to get back to the
old-school sudo apt-get firmware-b43-installer huh? Nice!

Does anyone already have the right to distribute I hate Broadcom badges? Caps

If not, I'd love to grab the opportunity.

2014-08-21 Thread varunendra
@adam,

If it is not a UEFI based installation, try a BIOS reset (to factory
defaults). Or, if it is dual-booting with Windows 8, try a hot-reboot
while the wifi is active.

If these don't help, I suggest you start a thread at ubuntuforums.org
with the description of the problem and the wireless_script report, and
post its link here so we can follow. This may not be a good place for
the kind of troubleshooting you may have to go through.

2014-07-18 Thread varunendra
Based on confirmations in comment #59 here, and comment #22 in the
related bug #1277959 , I have edited the ubuntuforums post
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2181558) to change the wapf
value from 1 to 4, and added the request to post the command output for
model number.

Still unsure though why it broke on models on which there was no problem
with older kernels. As long as that remains unexplained and the Fn+F2
unfixed, this will still remain a 'Workaround', not a fix.

But thanks to you, Hans, for at least patching the code for reported
models to make them work out of box, and not requiring to apply the
workaround manually.

It'd be a delightful day when the real culprit is found and the 'real'
fix is released, so that the Fn+F2 issue is fixed too.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1173681] Re: 168c:002b AR9285 ath9k not working after updating to ubuntu 13.04 Raring (linux 3.8.0-19-generic)

2013-10-28 Thread varunendra
Not promoting the WORKAROUND here, but as long as people coming to this page 
have to resort to it, I've re-written it in a cleaner and more comprehensive 
manner in this thread : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2181558
(also includes how to quickly  completely revert back)

Post #1 in it contains the symptoms, verification, and the workaround,
and post #2 contains a workaround for the Fn+F2 key disability.

Also, this workaround is LIMITED to *ASUS* Notebooks/Netbooks ONLY.

I myself have an Asus X54C, but haven't upgraded from kernel 3.2.0-36
yet, so not affected yet. (a 500+ download will take about 2-3
frustrating days on my snail pace gprs connection that breaks every few
hours).

Would be more than happy to do the bisecting and other requested
operations as soon as I upgrade.

As a side note, I think there should be a separate bug report against
asus_nb_wmi driver as this one addresses a problem that can be caused
by other reasons on other models too. Have requested the same in the
linked thread too.
