An old Gateway laptop (W730-K8X) with the Broadcomm with b43-fwcutter and ndiswrapper installed. it's a BCM4318 variant.
This is a fresh, updated Lucid install. The wireless connection is "hidden" and originally I could not get a connection at all, unless I entered "sudo modprobe b43" at each boot. I then added "modprobe b43" to the /etc/rc.local file so at least I get a "there are wireless networks available.. " dialog at each boot, but I still have to click, password, scroll, click each time. The information is there and it works; there is just no "Automatic connection..) It must have something to do with this particular PC, as there are 3 other wireless "Lucid Ubuntu's" that boot and autoconnect. Oh and "Connect automatically" and "Available to all users" are both checked. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295796 Title: [orinoco][intrepid] Network Manager does not reconnect to hidden SSID after reboot -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
