Hi Wiplash4, Do you have the linux-backports-modules package installed? If not, can you try installing. I believe the ath5k driver was disabled in the kernel and those wanting to use the driver need to have linux-backports- modules installed which contains an updated version of the driver.

Thanks. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- 8.10 destroys WLAN of Samsung R41 and Aspire 4572 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/289503 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
