Hi again, I would like to express some thoughts, just to be 'fair' and 'typical':
a. this is not a 'forum' but a 'bug report system' >>> the 'bug' reported, a fix found and it is on the way to be established b. most users above CAN FIX the problem as they involved in testing pre-released KK >>> they/we complain about the BAD situation for a newcomer who has 3G (mobile) >>> or land-wireless broadband as their main internet connection c. #446146 is a real BUG as in many cases the creation/disconnection of the CDROM and/or ttyUSBx is looping (dmesg has new lines) and sometimes system freezes d. this bug found 'in time' (8-Oct), discussed and confirmed at ubuntuforums.org and then reported at launchpad following the 'typical' procedure. Confirmed by developers and a patch released. This patch tested and found working (or at least 'working enough') 'in time' (12-Oct) e. Kernel Freeze came at 15-Oct without this fix! f. Possibly the purpose of this thread ('bug report') fulfilled after comment #16-20 Some reference links: Karmic Koala Release Schedule http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1133054 canNOT use Huawei E169 with 2.6.31-12-generic #40 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8068801 Regards, George P.S.: Release of 9.04 had wvdial removed from final .iso and a lot of dial-up users faced a major problem! -- Huawei E169 USB dongle not working with kernel 2.6.31-12.40 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/446146 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
