[Bug 482535] Re: Bluetooth and wifi don't work after upgrade of Sony Vaio PCG SRX51P/B from Jaunty to Karmic
I put a fresh install of Lucid on the machine and the wifi and bluetooth failed to work. So clearly modern Linux kernels are not managing the Sony add-in (Sony Programmable I/O Controller -- SPIC) of the past that dealt with wifi and bluetooth. I guess the code has been removed as it used to work. Sadly the machine can only take a maximum of 384MB of main memory, whilst operating systems these days seem to require 1GB or more to operate. With Lucid the machine was more or less unusable due to swapping -- especially apparent when using Unison, so I have had to retire it. This is a great shame as its sound card is far superior to anything that gets put into modern laptops, but that is a rant for a different forum. -- Bluetooth and wifi don't work after upgrade of Sony Vaio PCG SRX51P/B from Jaunty to Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/482535 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

I have just done a fresh install of Lucid on this machine. Wifi is still problematic. I posted Bug 532829, but perhaps I should just have continued with this one. Anyway I will do apport-collect in a moment or two.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please execute the following command, as it will automatically gather debugging information, in a terminal: apport-collect 482535 This will help us to find and resolve the problem. Bear in mind that you may need to install the python-launchpadlib package from the universe repository. Additionally, when prompted to give apport-collect permissions for Launchpad you will need to give it at least the ability to "Change Non-Private" data as it will be adding information to your bug report. Thanks in advance! When reporting bugs in the future please use apport, either via the appropriate application's "Help -> Report a Problem" menu or using 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- Bluetooth and wifi don't work after upgrade of Sony Vaio PCG SRX51P/B from Jaunty to Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/482535 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
