As niram reports to have done in his last post, I have compiled and installed latest http://wireless.kernel.org/ drivers, and all the same the bug is there. I restate it: at completely random times, wireless totally stops working, and if issued ping accesspoint, a "sendmsg: no buffer space available" error message is returned. However a preferential trigger seems to be torrent or openssh-based clients (ssh, sftp, sshfs). My setup: slax 6.1.1 Linux slax 2.6.27.8 #1 SMP Sun Apr 12 22:55:24 Local time zone must be set--see zic i686 VIA Esther processor 1000MHz CentaurHauls GNU/Linux
wifi usb dongle : alfa awus036h, rtl8187 chipset I add that with old r8187 driver (such as the one included in BackTrack3) there was no problem, but I can't get it to compile on present 27.8 kernel. I also tried to increase /proc/sys/net/core/wmem_max up to 100000000 as read somewhere, without success. -- ping: sendmsg: No buffer space available (wifi) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/192765 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
