I bought a MSI U123 because I read Ubuntu worked out of the box (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks). Well, that's not entirely true, and this is driving me crazy (one other thing that's not working in Ubuntu is scrolling using the touchpad, so I think 'works 100% out of the box is a wrong claim).
I don't know much about linux (I just *didn't* want to use Windows). I tried every suggestion I could find (I found out it's a widespread problem), including the one mentioned in this thread. Installing wicd made connections more stable. More stable, but not stable enough to be usable, unfortunately. In XP everything works just fine - that's frustrating! The only stable connections in Ubuntu seem to be those with unencrypted access points. I don't know what a "full syslog" is or "wpa_supplicant.log". I just hope someone's got a clever solution that can be included in the upcoming Ubuntu version 9.10... -- poor wireless range on MSI Wind U123; updated drivers not default? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416488 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
