[Karmic Lucid Maverick] Atheros AR5211 - ath5k driver
I second that. The patch fixed my problem as well, even though I only
used it to disable L0S, not L1. Recent compat-wireless doesn't compile
for the latest lucid kernel (due to the wext refactoring thing), but
with 2.6.35-4-generic from maverick it works perfectly.

This is a patch that was in the upstream bug report which appears to fix
the problem for the users that have tested it. Leann, is there any
chance we can get this into Ubuntu before Maverick is released?

Thinkpad X41 Tablet
Installed the compat-wireless package (from end of May). It now takes minutes
instead of seconds to connect to the wireless network (and therefore several
manual retrials) - error message is simple try1-3 and then timeout.
After a few minutes the connection suddenly works
Installing the latest compat-wireless package (2010-05-27) solved the
issues on my Thinkpad T61 (AR5212, 1014:058a) running a stock Lucid with

Some extra info : The same laptop booted on Vista ( I know, i know) does not

I have been running Lucid for a couple of weeks and are seeing hugely
degraded performance. Backports in Karmic was OK.
Bug #461419 I am wondering if this bug have some other bearing on the
performance ? (Could be completely wrong though)

For me, changing to lucid has worsened the performance. The zero-drops
of connection speed (and I mean zero) are more frequent (like two times
every minute or something like that) and the speed overall is worse as
well.
Are we supposed to install the lucid backport package? I tried and so

@Christiansen: Already tried that with no effect.
I installed the madwifi drivers from Hardware Drivers and rebooted and the
adapter was showing in iwconfig, but could not connect either through the
Network Manager applet or manually with iwconfig. BUT...removing madwifi and
rebooting again
I tried changing channels. It did nothing for the AR5211 I have. Even
with the latest bleeding-edge compat-wireless.

Had some success today in Lucid. Booted the system and the Enable

Teej, have you tried to change channel on your AP ?, I can see your are
running channel 11 (2,462 Mhz). Some atheros adapters have seems to have
thees problems with channels above 6 (2,437 Mhz) - see my comment in

I just acquired an IBM Thinkpad T42p laptop and the ath5k driver is
unusable with the miniPCI I have installed in the system. It is actually
a Philips adapter from a T40p but that shouldn't matter. I'm on Lucid
Lynx beta and I tried all stages as described above.
I installed:
Not sure this working for you, you may try on your T42(I use T40)

regarding the issue that they doesn't work with the default ath5k module
installed by *buntu. While trying to capture communication between the
