Public bug reported: The system fails to properly boot when used with the d-link DWL-AG530 pci wireless adapter. I have gotten it to work and update with the cisco 430 pcmcia adapter, but function is unreliable at best and while it allows to update software, i am not able to either surf the web or use gaim chat client.
However, when i placed my DWL-AG530 back in it's place pci, dapper will nolonger boot. It will just sit there for extended sets of time, the hardware detection will fail and it will attempt to set up networking and freeze. In future releses it would be nice to set up the network "after" the machine is in gnome, otherwise the machine will not function. My hardware is as follows. Intel pentium 4c 2.8, northwood gigabyte 81pe1000 rev 2 1 gig (2x512) kingston value ram Ati radeon 9800pro 128 agp intel based 10/100 lan Ac'97 onboard sound lucent usb/firewire pci adapter ricoh r5c520 pcmcia adapter cisco 430 pcmcia wireless D-link DWL AG530 super g wireless samsung cd-rw lite-on generic DVD drive Western digital 120gb IDE western digital 80gb SCI-USB 2.0 I hope to know of a quick fix, because i am enjoying ubuntu when i can get it to function, but it's been very tempermental with my hardware from hoary on up, even though my hardware is far from exotic. I hope someone somewhere has an idea as to why this is happening. Best of luck. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- System fails to boot, hardware detection failure. https://launchpad.net/bugs/54913 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
