I have same chipset on Acer Laptop and this has been an issue since Gutsy Gibbon, continues with Hardy but up until 2.6.24-19 kernal the Madwifi driver could be installed and all would be a source of joy.
Since upgrading to 2.6.24-21 kernal the madwifi install causes a kernal panic if it is installed . Have also tried the Intrepid Alpha's and Beta and still no joy, I hope this bug is fixed soon as there is now no Madwifi option to allow an upgrade path. Many thanks -- Atheros 5007 wireless still doesn't work in intrepid beta???? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278823 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
