I'm on a Lenovo T440p; Ubuntu 14.04 AMD64; kernel 3.13.0-35-generic (I had to downgrade my bios to 1.14 as suggested here: http://askubuntu.com/a/502065/63688 )
I tried installing the drivers from the git repository in 182, but as soon as I boot, it crashes. (for anyone else who runs into this problem, you can boot into recovery mode to uninstall the driver: sudo make uninstall). Here's the last part of the error message (please forgive any typos; I had to copy this by hand): [ 5.107060] Code: c9 80 41 89 4e 10 f6 43 3a 20 74 7e 48 8d 4c 37 18 48 01 ca 0f 84 b9 07 00 00 83 7a 68 18 0f 86 b5 03 00 00 48 8b ba d8 00 00 00 <0f> b7 37 89 f1 66 81 e1 fc 00 66 81 f9 80 00 74 45 66 81 f9 c0 [ 5.107186] RIP [<ffffffffa0f9ee82>] rtl92ee_rx_query_desc+0x172/0x980 [rtl8192ee] [ 5.107223] RSP <ffff88023e243c28> [ 5.113573] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt [ 5.113621] drm_kms_helper: panic occurred, switching back to text console After which I have to forcibly cut power to turn it off. -- 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/1239578 Title: No wireless support for Realtek RTL8192EE [10ec:818b] Status in HWE Next Project: Confirmed Status in HWE Next trusty series: Confirmed Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Open this bug to trace device driver RTL8192EE.
