My solution was the following: - google for 'toshiba t130 service manual filetype:pdf', get pdf - buy an Intel Centrino wireless miniPCIe card for chf30, making sure it was a half-height card - replaced the crappy Realtek thing with the real deal. (FTR, the cable connectors on the motherboard needed the black part lifted up, then the flat cables slid out, allowing me to remove the top cover. Didn't need to force anything too much.)
This may void my warranty, but at least I have working wireless. The only thing that does not work (out of the box at least) is the Fn+F8 'wifi kill switch'. HTH. YMMV. -- rtl8187se driver causes kernel panic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/596808 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
