Still an issue. I've confirmed that OP's HP Mini also uses a Broadcom chipset. Changing the owner package to bcmwl-kernel-source - this package should blacklist the other (open-source) Broadcom modules. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/863799 Title: Connect/Reliability problems when I create a WiFi Ad-Hoc network on Oneiric To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/863799/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report on this issue. However, given the number of bugs that the Kernel Team receives during any development cycle it is impossible for us to review them all. Therefore, we occasionally resort to using automated bots to request further testing. This is such a request. We have noted that there is a newer version of the development kernel than the one you last tested when this issue was found. Please test again with the newer kernel and indicate in the bug if this issue still exists or not. If the bug still exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to Confirmed. If the bug no longer exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to Fix Released. Thank you for your help, we really do appreciate it. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Tags added: kernel-request-3.0.0-12.20 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/863799 Title: Connect/Reliability problems when I create a WiFi Ad-Hoc network on Oneiric To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/863799/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 863799] Re: Connect/Reliability problems when I create a WiFi Ad-Hoc network on Oneiric
Thanks to an ArchLinux forum thread, I discovered that the issue is with multiple drivers trying to manage the Broadcom chip. I'm using the restricted "wl" driver, but the opensource drivers load too. To fix this, I added the following three lines to the bottom of /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf - blacklist bcma blacklist brcmsmac blacklist brcmutil I'm not familiar with how the restricted drivers are distributed in Ubuntu - it seems that the long-term fix is to blacklist the opensource drivers when the restricted one is enabled. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/863799 Title: Connect/Reliability problems when I create a WiFi Ad-Hoc network on Oneiric To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/863799/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
