Enough of that nonsense. I will just buy my nephew a new sifi usb stick
instead of hacking a buggy system. which one works out of the box? I'm
sick of this.

See my report -> http://blog.karroum.dyndns.org/andreas/2008/12/22/how-
to-upgrade-from-ubuntu-804-hardy-heron-to-810-intrepid-ibex-without-

The module for 2.6.24 doesn't work with 2.6.27 (Intrepid) and it seems
you can't even compile the module with the new kernel any longer. You
can try if it works with ndiswrapper (or keep the kernel and linux-
restricted-modules from Hardy).

ah, that was a mental connection I have not made before. Since this is a
kernal module, it is gone with a new kernel. this explains, why me
nephew's pc cannot connect to the net anymore and also hints that
everything should be fine, when I just upgrade to the latest ubuntu.
thanks :)

In theory it should. To be sure just check and delete all the file of
the old kernel version (/boot, /lib/modules, ...) and update grub.

Hi,

this is nuts! A regression from a previously perfectly working fine
piece of hardware. And a patch that can only be applied if you are
connected with the internet!

The good news is that the patch by nils
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-
modules-2.6.24/+bug/200589/comments/9) works for me, also with the
network manager - only that it does not show the signal strength. When
applying the patch make sure to download the correct sources for your
current kernel version.

2008-04-17 Thread Nils Kassube
How to apply the patch:

You should uninstall the package linux-restricted-modules because the
module from this package would be loaded instead of the newly compiled
one.

Then enter the commands below in a terminal. Please note: The source
code download is 150MB, i.e. several hours for dial-up.

sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall sharutils
mkdir fwlanusb
cd fwlanusb
wget 'http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13046036/fwlanusb.dif'
apt-get source linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-12-386
cd linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24*/
patch -l -p1 < ../fwlanusb.dif
cd fritz/fwlanusb/lib/
uudecode fwlanusb-lib.o.uu
cd ../src
make
sudo checkinstall make install

The last command will ask a question or two, use the default. At the
point where the 10 package options are displayed, change the package
name to something useful like "fwlanusb".
