I'm having the same problem with Karmic using 2.6.31-17-generic. I have a T61i with the Atheros wireless (AR5212) chip set using the madwifi drivers ath_pci and ath_hal with wicd since I couldn't get the ath5k driver with NetManager to work with Karmic. It will not recognize my internal wireless card even though this same configuration worked perfectly in Jaunty.
The problem only occurs when connected using wireless. I can be on for days without an issue with a wired connection. No apparent information in the logs outside of the following: Feb 3 04:37:46 moerder kernel: [30361.430122] rix 1542 (0) bad ratekbps 0 mode 1 Feb 3 04:37:46 moerder kernel: [30361.430131] rix 1542 (0) bad ratekbps 0 mode 1 Feb 3 04:37:46 moerder kernel: [30361.430137] rix 1542 (0) bad ratekbps 0 mode 1 Feb 3 06:42:10 moerder kernel: [37824.587165] rix 2056 (0) bad ratekbps 0 mode 1 Feb 3 06:42:10 moerder kernel: [37824.587174] rix 2056 (0) bad ratekbps 0 mode 1 Feb 3 06:42:10 moerder kernel: [37824.587179] rix 2056 (0) bad ratekbps 0 mode 1 The T61i is not responsive (locked up) with the blinking caps light. I'm tempted to try the ath5k driver again but don't know if that will really correct the situation. modinfo ath_pci filename: /lib/modules/2.6.31-17-generic/net/ath_pci.ko license: Dual BSD/GPL version: svn r4117 (branch madwifi-0.9.4) description: Support for Atheros 802.11 wireless LAN cards. odinfo ath5k filename: /lib/modules/2.6.31-17-generic/updates/cw/ath5k.ko version: 0.6.0 (EXPERIMENTAL) license: Dual BSD/GPL description: Support for 5xxx series of Atheros 802.11 wireless LAN cards. author: Nick Kossifidis -- Thinkpad T61p hardlock flashing caps lock https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300693 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
