thanks for post. I have personally built kernels in the past just for the fun of it and they worked v well but never maintained/patched them afterwards because of the maintenance they require and I do not have material time for that; I'm not into that, I'm not a kernel developer/maintainer.
linux distributions that I'm using have already built and patched kernels and I prefer that for many reasons (chief being lack of time to dedicate maintaining kernels after I personally built/customized them ) - I use canonical's ubuntu releases. however, after first post 2011-04-13 the ubuntu kernel updates (new builds) for sure took into account this issue because since the final natty narwhal release there is no sign of any problem with this issue. ............ this just for your info, there is as far as I could see (and experience) a v nagging and old very basic device problem in linux ubuntu releases (I'm just using ubuntu for quite some time ) related to floppy devices. I do not know if that is a linux generic problem or in linux ubuntu releases only. there are quite a few bugs posted on ubuntu launchpad related to floppy devices. one of them, if interested, is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/441835 I do know that that is a totally different topic but .... because you're a first/top line developer of linux generic I said to myself that maybe, just maybe, you'll be interested of looking into it and hopefully bring to a conclusion this issue if it is related to linux generic. just let me know if I can do anything more on this floppy issue so that linux will NOT be looked upon by new users, after discovered, that they like linux BUT are happier with win because ALL basic devices on their pc function without flaw. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/759986 Title: WARNING: at /build/buildd/linux-2.6.38/net/wireless/scan.c:591 cfg80211_inform_bss_frame 0x1da/0x1f0 [cfg80211]() -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
