I figured out how to do a kernel bisection manually, and isolated the first bad commit to this one:
ab1304b986468e3ef698ec4e1cb1a3d4ba080811 is the first bad commit commit ab1304b986468e3ef698ec4e1cb1a3d4ba080811 Author: Marcel Holtmann <mar...@holtmann.org> Date: Mon Aug 11 22:11:35 2014 +0200 iwlwifi: Remove module build requirement for Intel Wireless WiFi The CONFIG_IWLDVM and CONFIG_IWLMVM currently have a "depends on m" as its requirement forcing it to be build as module. This is not needed and thus just remove it. Fixes: ae7486a2b734 ("iwlwifi: fix Kconfig issues") Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <mar...@holtmann.org> [Squashed 2 commites for MVM and DVM] Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumb...@intel.com> :040000 040000 ca6d0eb787ca471c6e6267bf86863acb9bcd638b 6fda9a82d01a59a4edeaee8d1fbeb2cce28eeecc M drivers The thing is, however, that after resetting to Ubuntu 3.19.0-13.13, and then reverting this commit (which had merge issues, but I believe I resolved them correctly) I still get the same result. I suppose I can conclude one of two things from this - either there is another independent commit which also causes this problem and occurs after the one above, or I did the merge incorrectly. Let me know if there is more I can do to help resolve this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1442411 Title: Intel 3160 wireless card no longer able to connect to wifi networks Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Laptop: Lenovo Y70 Touch Wireless Card: Intel Corporation Wireless 3160 (rev 93) When running Ubuntu Gnome 14.10 (on a live USB drive) I am able to connect to wifi networks without any issue. When running Ubuntu Gnome 15.04 (either on live USB or installed and fully updated) I am able to see the list of available wifi networks, but not able to connect. Selecting one and entering the password makes the network manager applet indicate that it is "Connecting..." but then it gives up after about a minute or so and reverts back to "Not Connected". I have tested this without network encryption as well, and the same result occurs. I have ran a wifi debugging script, here is the output: For Ubuntu 14.10 - http://pastebin.com/aLUhTyrM For Ubuntu 15.04 - http://pastebin.com/f0yRjQUC Again, the card seems to work perfectly on 14.10, but is unable to connect to any networks on 15.04. I haven't completely narrowed this down to the firmware, however that is the most prominent difference (aside from the kernel itself) that I notice in the above files (14.10 uses iwlwifi-3160-9.ucode, while 15.04 uses iwlwifi-3160-10.ucode). --- ApportVersion: 2.17-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: mboratko 1609 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: mboratko 1609 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: GNOME DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.04 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-04-10 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-GNOME 15.04 "Vivid Vervet" - Beta amd64 (20150326) MachineType: LENOVO 80DU Package: linux (not installed) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.19.0-12-generic.efi.signed root=UUID=0fb46cba-f7ac-4bc5-aa7d-5f6aa74636c1 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.19.0-12.12-generic 3.19.3 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.19.0-12-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-3.19.0-12-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.143 Tags: vivid UdevLog: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/log/udev' Uname: Linux 3.19.0-12-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm bumblebee cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 02/11/2015 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: 9ECN37WW(V2.01) dmi.board.asset.tag: 31900058WIN dmi.board.name: Lenovo Y70-70 Touch dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: 31900058WIN dmi.chassis.asset.tag: 31900058WIN dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: Lenovo Y70-70 Touch dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvr9ECN37WW(V2.01):bd02/11/2015:svnLENOVO:pn80DU:pvrLenovoY70-70Touch:rvnLENOVO:rnLenovoY70-70Touch:rvr31900058WIN:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrLenovoY70-70Touch: dmi.product.name: 80DU dmi.product.version: Lenovo Y70-70 Touch dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1442411/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
