I tried replacing the wifi/bluetooth mini pci-e card with one from ebay culled from a Dell laptop (BCM94312HMG) - the HP stopped with a BIOS error message on rebooting :( I've ordered a 575920-001 so I'm looking forward to standby/hibernation heaven from now on. Cheers Sam. -- You received

Following the advice in post #2, sudo ifconfig wlan0 down in virtual terminal 1 instantly locks the computer. Nothing results from doing the advice in post #6, and looking at kern.log post-reboot reveals no log entries relating to the attempt to shut the interface down. HP 311c running 12.04

Upgraded to 11.04 from 10.10, running 64bit ubuntu on i3 530 GA-H55N- USB3. If the computer is attached via HDMI on booting I get a blank display, but sound is routed via HDMI. I can connect remotely via ssh so the computer is healthy, but I cannot use vnc so X is not running. If I disconnect

It seems anecdotally that bluez 4.69 works better with CSR based dongles than 4.84, whereas 4.69 appears to not work well if at all with (some) Broadcom based dongles. Incidentally the Brian Rogers PPA ( https://launchpad.net/~brian-rogers/+archive/ppa ) which was where 4.84 was obtained is

Installing bluez-4.84 seems to fix the issue for me too. I'd suggest to the Ubuntu maintainers that they update the bluez repository version to 4.84 for Maverick. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.
