Is there a configuration option for compiling the kernel and all the modules with a different version of Wireless Extension? How have you done this, you said "This is a simple mismatch and the kernel team can easily solve this by recompiling the kernel. I already did that on my system and it works." I want to do it in the same way. Does it require to patch in an older version of Wireless Extension into the kernel source or is that parameterizable?
After having reviewed lots of code yesterday (libiw, wpa_ctrl of NetworkManager) I am still not convinced this will help, i want to see the fix for the kernel. I also have tried to install a newer upstream version of wpa_supplicant, but this doesn't help either. I also replaced libiw.so.28 by copying libiw.so.29 over it (i have not recompiled NetworkManager against it), nothing broke, but connecting to a hidden network didn't work. I also found another version mismatch, but this time it's only cosmetics. It is wpa_supplicant #126510 -- can't connect to hidden network https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/50214 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
