This only affects Hardy LBM. The Intrepid and Jaunty LBM packages use a different naming scheme and are not affected. Which task should I close?

Stefan: does this need to be fixed in the ubuntu-{intrepid,jaunty}-lbm

Alright, sorry it took a while. I found out that the crypto module loads the wrong alg. module if you use the backports modules. I placed modified lbm packages at http://people.ubuntu.com/~smb/bug322434/ With that installed I was able to use the ipw2200 from LBM and connect to my AP.

It is in progress, really. ;-) The only thing is that it probably does not need an explicit Hardy task since it is a versioned LBM, but ok. ** Changed in: linux-backports-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu Hardy) Status: Incomplete = In Progress -- Wifi (ipw2200) stopped connecting with kernel update 2.6.24-22 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/322434 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

What encryption is the AP running? The log shows only WEP being loaded. I got the same network card here running with the latest Hardy kernel and can still connect to my AP (WPA). However I can see the tkip algorithm being loaded. Could you please also attach the output of lsmod?

I am not sure what exactly you meant with What encryption is the AP running, but I am using 128-bit WEP. In Network Manager key dialog I have selected WEP 64/128-bit Hex, and authentication is set to Open System. The AP is a Linksys WRT54G v3. Wireless security tab shows security mode is 128-bit WEP.

[Bug 322434] Re: Wifi (ipw2200) stopped connecting with kernel update 2.6.24-22
That was what I wanted to know. I just tried to make sure that the correct crypto module was used. Looking at the loaded modules it is clear what is going wrong. Just not exactly why. There is a separate ieee80211 stack in linux backports modules which normally should only be used for drivers there. But in your case it gets loaded and bound to the ipw2200 driver. As a work-around you can add the following line into /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist: blacklist lbm_cw_ieee80211 then rebuild your initrd with sudo update-initramfs -u. After rebooting the wireless should work again. Or, if you do not need any driver from linux-backports-modules you could remove that package. -- Wifi (ipw2200) stopped connecting with kernel update 2.6.24-22 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/322434 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 322434] Re: Wifi (ipw2200) stopped connecting with kernel update 2.6.24-22
I just realized that there are actually two versions of the ipw2200 driver. One comes from the backports modules and the other is in the standard kernel image. So blacklisting won't work. So, if you need linux.backports-modules for other reasons, the only workaround would be to rename the ipw2200.ko in /lib/modules/2.6.24.../updates/... I have to check what exactly changed there. -- Wifi (ipw2200) stopped connecting with kernel update 2.6.24-22 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/322434 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
