This is still an issue with 2.6.27-12. Installing compat-wireless manually works fine. Using lbm fails to load with the same symbol error we have been seeing for months.
rt73 regressed in Hardy - last known good kernel was 2.6.24-19. I don't think any diagnosis as been made on why some users can successfully use backports with rt73 and others fail with the reported symbol error. I suspect 64 bit, but I'm certainly no expert. rt73 remains the dominant chipset here in SE Asia for usb wireless sticks, and are popular with home users and small business. All new products appear to be using rt73. All products advertising themselves as supporting linux use rt73. 50-75% of all the devices available here use rt73. -- Ralink rt73usb / rt73 intrepid 8.10 -- wireless connection periodically lost https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/306087 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
