I confirm this bug on Feisty. I am using ndiswrapper on a Broadcom BCM4309 rev 02 If i uncomment my wireless section in this case (wlan0) from /etc/network/interfaces the machine boots fast but my wireless card is not detected. I guess the question is, how do I force it not to try obtaining an IP address from my wireless during boot time? The problem is that it just times out then continues booting without a network detected on it.
I think this bug is not related to ndiswrapper but to the script found here: /etc/rcS.d/S40networking Look at the TIMEOUT section been established around line 20. Is there a way to "blacklist" the card so that it skips this step? The key is to only blacklist it from this step alone. Here is my /etc/network/interfaces: auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp -- Delay on boot with wireless network https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105414 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
