Re: [Bug 324921] Re: [Intrepid] Update kernel to Linux 2.6.27.14
Hm, somewhere I saw that before. IIRC the problem was the ath5k/ath9k drivers competing and if the wrong one touched the device first it would break. Something related to have LBM installed and the wrong driver not being blacklisted...

[Bug 324921] Re: [Intrepid] Update kernel to Linux 2.6.27.14
I haven't tried the rmmod suggestion yet. Will do that later. After installing the new -14 kernel built by Stefan for https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/355057 my madwifi stopped working again. The log entries look exactly the same as the last time. I guess rebuilding and reinstalling it will help again, but I haven't done it so far, just in case somebody is interested in further details (and it's too late for me anyway). I guess after the upgrade it starts to use the default Ubuntu driver, but I don't see any explanation why. This time ath_pci is not commented out in /etc/modules.

[Bug 324921] Re: [Intrepid] Update kernel to Linux 2.6.27.14
@Martin I have not investigated the issue any deeper, but my WLAN card of my Aspire One netbook did not work with a vanilla Intrepid installation. (Don't have the card make/model handy right now, but I can look it up later if desired.) So I followed the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne --- clip--- Wireless module There has been some confusion as to which wireless driver provides the best performance and reliability. I have found the following: o madwifi from kernel (ath_pci) - does not attach to hardware. o ath5k from intrepid backports (ath5k) - connects to hardware, but experiences disconnects on medium to heavy wireless activity, and can not communicate with some AP's using WPA2 PSK. o madwifi-hal from http://snapshots.madwifi-project.org/ (ath_pci) - Everything works. --- clip --- The newest madwifi did indeed work for me. @Stefan I did not check the logs whether there was anything interesting. The first thing I noticed after upgrading was that ath_pci had be commented in /etc/modules. So I uncommented it again and rebooted. When WLAN still didn't work, I just recompiled and reinstalled. After that WLAN worked again. If this is important (or you are just interested to understand what is going on) and 14.30 is still available I could try to reproduce the issue and check the logs. I don't think gcc version has changed since I installed 14.30 and compiled madwifi the first time. -- [Intrepid] Update kernel to Linux 2.6.27.14 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/324921 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 324921] Re: [Intrepid] Update kernel to Linux 2.6.27.14
In general this should be the case. However the ABI number only makes sure that no kernel symbols have changed or have been removed. Potentially there could be other changes (like the compiler changed in between). But that is a bit speculative. If the ABI had changed, you would get messages about the module not agreeing with some kernel symbol or not finding it. -- [Intrepid] Update kernel to Linux 2.6.27.14 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/324921 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 324921] Re: [Intrepid] Update kernel to Linux 2.6.27.14
Today I saw that the 2.6.7-14 has been updated from version 14.30 to 14.33. After applying the update, my madwifi driver stopped working. I'm quite new to Ubuntu, but I understood as long as the ABI version does not change, i.e. 14 in this case, there is no need to rebuild kernel modules. After recompiling and reinstalling madwifi it worked again. Is this a problem or did I understand the meaning of ABI wrong? Or is the stability not guaranteed as long as it is still in the proposed repository? -- [Intrepid] Update kernel to Linux 2.6.27.14 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/324921 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The framebuffer console problem reported as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/351207 is not regression.
