The patch works for me. I installed the .debs from Leann's link first. It worked, but then I purged all ndiswrapper-* since they were installed from Julian's ppa and reinstalled ndiswrapper-common, -utils and ndisgtk from the beta maverick desktop image I initially installed from. However uninstalling ndiswrapper-dkms also removed the kernel module from Leann's kernel. So I reinstalled the linux image .deb again. Rebooted - it works. The only thing different is I have to modprobe ndiswrapper after each restart.

Because there are unrelated bugs affecting iwl drivers that make their use impractical in certain setups and your suggestions do not help get ndiswrapper fixed.

Hi Eric, If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

This is my laptop: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/Old/AcerExtensa2300 and the relevant Wireless card is the Acer version of the IPN2220 Wireless LAN Card. I tried various ndiswrappers today but no change, unfortunately because I was hoping it would be simple like the old Gutsy to Feisty trick I did years ago. I do think the comment above in #1 and I quote as ndiswrapper should only be a temporary solution and not used in long-term situations (i.e. users should buy compatible hardware). is unfortunate. Not everyone can afford to just go and buy a brand new, or even second hand, compatible laptop.

Even though the ndiswrapper package was just fixed to not complain about 2.6.35 kernels, this problem persists with my Intel 3945abg. I don't support ndiswrapper on cards where native drivers (iwl3945) are available; as ndiswrapper should only be a temporary solution and not used in long-term situations (i.e. users should buy compatible hardware). You are free to find the problem yourself though, and provide a patch (take a look at dmesg, are there errors?). If you do so, you should forward the patch to upstream, as I don't communicate with them (the project appears to be dead anyway). -- ndiswrapper can scan for SSIDs but cannot connect on any kernel newer than 2.6.34-5.14 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/613796 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'll be frank when I say I regret even mentioning my hardware. It only distracts from the issue. Truth be told, the iwl3945 suffers from terrible speed issues that limit it to 1Mbps/1Mbps in most situations. This was not present in ipw3945.

It didn't help. I forgot to mention that I only get ndiswrapper to connect on 2 different laptops running 2.6.34 after unloading and then reloading the module after booting to the desktop. Cycling the module is a critical step. When I attempt to cycle the module on the laptops when using 2.6.35, the terminal either hangs or the entire kernel panics. -- ndiswrapper can scan for SSIDs but cannot connect on any kernel newer than 2.6.34-5.14 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/613796 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
