It is very easy to update manually the iwl4965 driver to the latest build, follow these steps:
1) download the latest iwlwifi driver from www.linuxintelwireless.org http://intellinuxwireless.org/iwlwifi/downloads/iwlwifi-1.1.21.tgz 2) install linux-source: sudo apt-get install linux-source go in /usr/src: cd /usr/src 3) locate the linux-source-2.6.xxx.bz2 package and unpack it: sudo bunzip2 linux-source-2.6.xxx.bz2 sudo tar xf linux-source-2.6.xxx.tar sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.22 /lib/modules/`uname -r`/source 4) then unpack and compile the driver: tar xzf iwlwifi-1.1.21.tgz cd iwlwifi-1.1.21 sudo make sudo make install 5) And load the modules with sudo modprobe iwl4965 you can check if setup is successful (iwl4965 should be displayed as an output) by: sudo lsmod | grep iwl The new driver will be loaded automatically at each reboot -- iwl4965 drops out from time to time (Santa Rosa) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144621 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
