I blacklisted ath_hal > and ath_pci. Since then my card works. Here is its lspci: I had same problem a week ago. But I blacklisted ath5k because it doesn't support AP mode. I didn't tried whether wireless will work properly if both of them loaded because that machine was acting as a only network access in my office. Tomorrow I'll have brand new linksys wireless router that will replace current setup, then I'll be able to test it. Is anyone have such experience? -- Regards Dulmandakh -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
Bug: setting routes in system-wide vpnc connection makes networkmanager crash
Hello. I've just discovered another bug: when I try to manually set route (without gateway) in network-manager-configurator for vpnc connection it makes it crash and I recieve a message: Updating connection failed: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus). It's a system-wide vpnc connection. Making exactly the syme configuration but with a user connection works perfectly Thanks Vladimir Serbinenko -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
Ubuntu Kiosk Edition
I was reading the wiki on the guest session for intrepid [1] and I started thinking. It states on the wiki that the guest account is not currently secure enough to act as a full kiosk. Does anyone know what work would need to be done to produce a proper Ubuntu Kiosk Edition? I would think that as along as the guest account has read only access to anything configuration-related (including locations like ~/.gconf), and the only writable folder (perhaps ~/Desktop) is cleaned upon log-out, then there isn't much that a potential vandal could do unless they're willing to start hacking the kernel. It would be necessary to hide any configuration applets or menus that would touch on a read-only file (or at least to provide a graceful "This is a kiosk, so you can't change that." alert), but a lot of the apps that use these locations for actual data storage, such as evolution, aren't the sort of apps that would normally be used at a kiosk anyways, and could probably be removed completely. I'm sure this is full of holes, please feel free to point them out.

Proposition: blacklist ath_hal and ath_pci

NetworkManager: connect to vpn when connecting to some networks
Hello. When I connect to Wifi/plain network of my university I have to use VPN(vpnc). So I want VPN connection to be automatically established when I connect to this network. However I don't want to initialize VPN tunnel when I connect to my WPA2 home network. Would it be possible to configure VPN in NetworkManager to connect to VPN only when I connect to some networks? With old debian system it was possible by writing something like: up vpnc down vpnc-disconnect to /etc/network/interfaces Thanks Vladimir Serbinenko -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
