[Bug 205114] Re: B43 driver - severely reduced range

2008-04-23 Thread notoriousdbp
Performance with the b43 driver on my Acer with a BCM4318 is terrible. Connection dropping, Internet speed running at about 370kbps when it should be around 1920kbps. I struggle to get to my router's web console too. I really wish I could get ndiswrapper to work again but for some reasons this

Thanks. I checked the usplash.conf file and the xres and yres were already set to 1024 and 768 respectively. I updated initramfs as per your instructions and still get a blank screen on shutdown. I think this may be more of a problem with the sis driver in gutsy as it works better if I use the

I've got a feeling that this might be more to do with wpa_supplicant. Also, and I don't know how relevant this is, when I downloaded 2.6.20-10 I noticed I suddenly had the restricted drivers manager package. I'm just throwing a few ideas as to what changed at the time network-manager stopped

I can confirm that this has been the case since 2.6.20-10. For the time being I have changed to wicd to connect my wireless and that works fine. I have 2.6.20-13 running at the moment. This really should be elevated to critical as it will seriously affect the uptake of 7.04 -- wireless does
