This problems was entirely preventable because the fix was known two weeks before karmic's release.
However, I'm wondering from comments above (post #129) that the kernel.org version 2.6.31.5 does not work with some modems, if the problem is wider than Ubuntu and affects other distros as well. I also wonder if, as Ben Herrenschmidt commented earlier, we have multiple problems. My e169 works with Andy's patched kernel and kernel.org kernels after and including 2.6.31.5. -- Several Huawei USB dongle don't work with kernel 2.6.31-12.40 (2.6.31.1 update related) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/446146 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
