[Bug 141396] Re: ipw3945 hangs intermittently on Thinkpad T61
The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback. ** Tags added: cft-2.6.27 -- ipw3945 hangs intermittently on Thinkpad T61 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/141396 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

Same problem with Dell 1420n laptop after I installed Gutsy. The fix is to use the old iwl3945 and blacklist the ipw3945, this does fix the stability issue but it's slower. I was maxing out 8100kbps dowloads with the ipw3945 but then it drops connection after a few minutes. Now with the iwl3945 I'm only maxing 1204kbps but it's stable a trade off that's not noticed unless you update or apt while on wireless.

Funny it's not been mentioned yet in this thread, but the iwlwifi drivers in gutsy are rather old. Changelogs from intellinuxwireless.org describe heaps of serious bugs that have been squashed recently. Those fixes should IMHO make it into the next revision of the linux-ubuntu- modules package. There's also a lot of annoying bugs in gutsy's current kernel, so maybe there's a hope for an updated kernel and modules shortly. -- ipw3945 hangs intermittently on Thinkpad T61 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/141396 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've got the same with 7.10 on an Acer Aspire.

I have the same problem. I decided to wipe out ubuntu 7.10 and give Fedora 8 a try. It uses iwl3945 instead of ipw3945. After add options disable_hw_scan=1 to modprobe.conf, it worked to some extend. My understanding is that ubuntu 7.10 shipped with both iwl3945 and ipw3945 but use iwl3945 as default.

[Bug 141396] Re: ipw3945 hangs intermittently on Thinkpad T61
I can confirm problems with gutsy and the 3945 on a T61. Some days it will stay connected the whole night.. others it will go into its weird state 3 times. Once it has done it, it seems to cause the whole machine to crash slowly if I attempt to reconnect. attempting to rmmod the ipw3945 hangs forever (+D state), new processes wont launch, etc. I'm forced to hold the power button down for 10 seconds to reboot. This is a regression, wifi was working pretty well in feisty. (I installed feisty fresh, and then upgraded to gutsy) I have confirmed the bug with WPA PSK, and WPA2 at work. I haven't connected to any open networks to confirm it in open mode. I have all the IRQ's in the bios set to "auto" instead of factory default 11, which makes the laptop much more stable otherwise in linux. -- ipw3945 hangs intermittently on Thinkpad T61 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/141396 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I get this too on my T61 every now and then.
