--- Begin Message ---Package: firmware-realtek Version: 0.44 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, I am using a Lenovo T540 laptop system with Debian Testing x64 (fully up-to- date) with the Gnome interface. It has a Realtek rtl8192ee wireless adaptor. The recent firmware-realtek package upgrade from 0.43 to 0.44 allowed my laptop to pick up wireless signals (good). However, any attempt to connect to a wireless service results in failure (no response). Any subsequent attempt to connect to a wireless service results in kernel panic, and total crash/freeze, with the monitor in 'text mode'. The latop is then totally unresponsive and a hard reset must be performed to restore the system. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the firmware-realtek package in an attempt to fix the issue, but the problem remains. I have been using a Ralink-based USB wireless dongle to obtain a wireless signal since the built-in Realtek unit has not been available. The Ralink USB dongle still gives proper service - but I would really like ot get the built-in Realtek components working. Please let me know if any logs would be of use in troubleshooting this issue - thanks. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (800, 'testing'), (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) firmware-realtek depends on no packages. firmware-realtek recommends no packages.
