Some short comments: - This is definitely a regression. In Gutsy (even Feisty!) there was a reliable version of the driver. In Hardy there is a crappier version related to the code that was merged into the main linux tree. I quote from the front page rtx00 upstream web site:
rt2x00 enters mainline kernel - January 2008 Hi All, two days ago, January 24th, Linux Kernel 2.6.24 was released. This is the first mainline kernel that includes (sadly a somewhat buggy) rt2x00 release. - It is more than just the rate issue. The code seems to have other problems. I have very variable success with associating under the same setup that worked perfectly under the hardy rt2500pci module. - I have linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-16-generic installed. doesn't help. Sometimes I get good performance, other times I can't even associate. What can be done to fix this? It kills/blocks/subverts networking on this popular network hardware (rt2500) in Hardy. -- [Hardy] Low bandwidth with rt2400 / rt2500 drivers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190515 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
