Re: [Bug 259157] Re: [MASTER 0.7 regression] atheros/madwifi and orinoco drivers not supported

2008-11-05 Thread Alexander Jones
I just want to add that ath9k on an AR5418 (MacBook Pro 3.1 Santa Rosa)
actually works fine. I'm not sure creating this giant metabug was such a
good idea.

asac: are you actually keeping track of what is working and what isn't
working? We have no chance of tracking regressions otherwise...

 I had a similar problem, wouldn't connect to wpa network.   I then tried
 a combination of things, ultimately this has worked:-
 
 Using ath5k driver (8.10 beta with latest updates).
 
 Hardware Drivers (gui): none activated
 
 /etc/networks contains:-
 
 iface wlan0 inet static
 address my static ip
 netmask my netmask
 gateway my gw
 wpa-psk my huge hex key - copied from another box

could you please post your value of netmask (except the psk obviosly)? Also
please test the clear-text psk (not the hex key).

NM should properly do it then i guess. If not, please start your
system with that configuration (verify that NM tried to connect to your
AP in syslog) ... wait a while and attach your complete syslog.

2008-10-10 Thread Daniel
I'm starting to think that my problem was a hardware problem. The device
didn't even show up in lspci, and also not in windows' device manager. A few
reboots later, it's back and working again.

Today it started asking for the password for my WPA, even though I've given
it before and it's supposed to be saved. When I enter it, it pops up the
dialog again after a while, even though it's the correct password. Again,
this may not be a linux/ubuntu problem though.

Hi Tim! Check out my bug 267761 for dmesg and all sorts of delicious
output for my card that works fine in Hardy but not Intrepid.

 I don't know if my comments help, but I can confirm that my last comment
 about NM not working probably doesn't have to do with the ath9k driver.
 
 I talked with someone having the same problems, and that person was
 using gigabit wired ethernet.
 

Please open a new bug. At best use apport to file your bug. in that
way we get valuable information and we dont need another turnaround
asking you to attach this and that.

Thanks,

 I was using the proprietary atheros driver before, but it doesn't show
 up in jockey (and neither does the proprietary fglrx driver, which I
 have also used in the past).
 

Ensure that you dont have any configuration (except maybe lo) in
/etc/network/interfaces.

Please open a new bug and remember to keep ath9k in the summary.

Attach the complete /var/log/syslog taken after reproducing this. Also
attach your complete /etc/network/interfaces.

 Another update:  I just got an update for network-manger today, and now
 the program is a fail.  Under Wireless Networks, it says device is
 unmanaged, is greyed out, and shows a disconnected icon.  I'm still
 thankful that I can use dhclient, and /etc/interfaces to configure my
 network, but network manager is not working.  Additionally, pidgin and
 firefox are acting as if I have no net connection.  (dig, ping, and
 telnet work fine)

NetworkManager will set the device to unmanaged mode by default if you
have it configured in /etc/network/interfaces.

So either remove your configuration from there (NM should allow you to
do almost everything nowadays) or set NM in managed mode (e.g. in
/etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf)


 
 Everytime I start firefox, it starts in offline mode.  (Meaning, I can
 take it out of offline mode, and it works fine, but then if I close it,
 and reopen, its back in offline mode.  All in the same session.)
 
 Pidgin seems to fail to connect.  I've been waiting while I type up this
 bug report for pidgin to connect.  I've already tested the irc server
 using telnet, and (I'm not experienced at that) it says hello,
 authenticate, you failed, goodbye.  I also know that if I just disable
 and re-enable the account, it will just work.  Its been a few minutes at
 this point.

Yes, thats a known issue of unmanaged mode and will be addressed
soon i hope.

 The network, however, is working.
 

This means that your device is unmanaged. This happens when you have
it configured in /etc/network/interfaces and use NM in unmanaged mode.

I would suggest that you change to managed=true in
/etc/Network/nm-system-settings.conf.

If that doesnt help, try to remove your configurations from
/etc/network/interfaces and let NetworkManager manage your connection
in the good old way.
