@ Ricardo: Imagine the bad publicity for linux if the next release comes out *without* the patch. Not just long time users of linux, but what about those new to the OS who will install the new release, only to find that they can't connect to the internet?
Connectivity nowadays is primordial and crucial, if the end user is to either get updates or even to get HELP about anything. It is to be fervently hoped that the 2.6.33 kernel *will* be included with the final release. Connecting with Karmic on my netbook, can be (infrequently) flaky, but now, with a NEWER release of the distro, *not* being able to connect at all ... not good. -- [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/496093 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
