[Bug 332620] Re: Acer 8204 3945ABG WLAN does't work with 8.10
Problem fixed. I don't know how it got fixed though! I made a Bootable USB flash drive with 8.10 and booted from the USB stick to see if I could get Wireless working with a Live USB. Sure enough, the Live USB had all the hardware working right off the bat. When I re-booted back to the hard drive on the laptop, the Wireless began to work without any configuration tinkering whatsoever! For whatever reason, booting off the Live USB seemed to kick the wireless system into life, so when I re- booted off the hard drive it was working right away. I don't know how this is possible, but that's what happened. -- Acer 8204 3945ABG WLAN does't work with 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332620 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 332620] [NEW] Acer 8204 3945ABG WLAN does't work with 8.10
Public bug reported: Hardware: Acer 8204WLMi laptop (specific issue with Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG wireless LAN). Previously had Ubuntu 8.04LTS installed and updated to 18 Feb 2009. All hardware worked out of the box with 8.04LTS. Used upgrade feature in Update Manager to move to 8.10 on 19 Feb 2009. Wireless no longer functional. The WLAN switch on the front of the laptop appears to be disabled (no light/no "enable wireless' capability with NetworkManager Applet 0.7.0).
