1. I'm unsure of what video driver my installation uses. 2. Today I figured I'd reinstall the patched driver, and then from the Firefox download screen I noticed that yesterday I had downloaded (& installed) http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26403054/xserver-xorg-video-via_0.2.903%2Bsvn713-1ubuntu2%7Eppa3_i386.deb Judging from the name (VIA) it is not an openchrome driver.
3. Nevertheless, Synaptic showed that I already had an openchrome driver installed. 4. So next I downloaded & installed http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26403053/xserver-xorg-video- openchrome_0.2.903%2Bsvn713-1ubuntu2%7Eppa3_i386.deb. 5. Changed power save settings and Rebooted. 6. Closed the lid and reopened. Screen comes back on and Hey Presto! The WLAN connection is still up! THANKS! Two questions left: a. How to check which video driver is actually in use? b. Any guess when we could expect the latest Broadcom driver for the 4312 chip to become available for installation through 'get-apt'? -- [HP 2133 MiniNote laptop] Unexpected and unrecoverable wireless disconnect with B43 driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331952 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
