Hi all,
I just confirm the problem and found there is a new patch that broken the alx
driver.
You can use the alx-2.0 dkms package before the kernel team release a new
kernel.
** Attachment added: alx-2.0.tgz
I just checked the latest quantal proposed kernel 3.5.0-31, and it works.
And the latest released kernel 3.5.0-29.49 works as well.
But 3.5.0-30 doesn't work.
So, I think the kernel team has fixed the problem which introduced from
3.5.0-30.

I copy the alx driver from raring kernel and change the Makefile and add

the same 28 as the one you linked above? (post #74),

From the build log, the patch goes in 3.5.0-28.49 kernel, and the patch is
applied to raring kernel as well.
So, you probably have to wait the next proposed kernel.
The launchpad bot will update the bug status when the proposed kernel is
available,
so you will know when you can have a kernel

Thank you for the explanation above (#73).
What I find puzzling is that according to #71 the source code in git

former works and the latter doesn't.
Anyway, I hope i can test your kernel at some point during this
Very quickly: the kernel you posted above on #74 works like a charm!
Please integrate that into the official kernel as soon as possible. This
way at least the AR8161/AR8162 problem will be gone forever :)

@AceLan Kao,
If I understand what you're saying, the alx module included with Ubuntu
corresponds to the one from qca/alx, which itself is the same as
mcgrof/alx plus 8d41851.
Now, I don't know if mcgrof/alx has ever worked on any machine, or if
this is just some kind of work-in-progress not
Bernardo,
I compared the alx driver in compat-wireless-3.6.8-1 and in qca/alx git tree,
and found there are huge difference.
And the driver I built from qca/alt git tree works well for me, but the one
from ubuntu kernel is crappy.
The source code should be identical.
I'll spend some time today
James,
I build the alx driver from
git://github.com/qca/alx.git
and the source code in that git tree and in ubuntu-precise are identical.
The latest commit of the alx driver is

Actually, there is one more commit in the qca git tree

I can confirm that the alx driver in quantal kernel is not working.

Hi Acelan,
I've heard that the lbm for the alx driver (from compat-drivers) still
works well. Would you please look into the difference between the
drivers to see if we can fix the experimental driver in the ubuntu

I can verify that the alx module included in 3.5.0-24.37 (linux-lts-
quantal) does NOT work, at least on 12.04.02. Installing alx again from
sources makes it work.
I see that bug 1154238 is only for Quantal and Raring and the fix is in

The comments in #58 and #59 should be fixed by bug 1154238.
