Rog <[email protected]> schrieb am Fr., 12. Jan. 2018 um 02:42 Uhr:During a recent install of Xubuntu, discussed in detail in my next-most-recent post to this list, I found a problem with defects in a later version of the Linux kernel.
No WiFi networking was the problem. After searching and finding that the correct Intel drivers were installed, having read someplace about kernel issues, I booted with the 4.10.0-28-generic version of the kernel - rather than the default 4.13.0-26 generic version. Magically, WiFi networking came to life.
I hesitate to update, fearing that the usable version of the kernel will disappear, which also leaves me stuck with a kernel with no patching for spectre and meltdown.
How does one let developers / maintainers know about this difficulty.
Background: this is on a new, Lenovo X1 Carbon Gen 4 laptop. The problem item:
lspci -vv -s 04:00.0 tells me:
Network Controller Intel Corp Wireless 8260
Kernel driver: iwlwifi
Kernel Modules:iwlwifi
