noting the report of bug 70722 I recently had a strange problem with my wireless connection which affected both edgy and dapper. The wireless connection appeared to be ok at boot but then mysteriously disconnected after a minute or so. After several attempts to restart networking and reboots of both Dapper and Edgy I booted to my WinXP partition to check it that was working. It was not, but after booting back to Dapper wireless resumed normal operation and has not been a problem (at least in Dapper) since.
Could this bug be a problem with the firmware binary that is loaded for the wireless driver? -- CPU soft lockup during bootup https://launchpad.net/bugs/63418 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
