@Anthony Hook The power saving related problems with kernel 2.6.38 and RT2860 hardware have now two fixes in the process of being released:
Please install the most up to date version of firmware for the rt2800pci driver from: http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/lp762987/linux-firmware_1.52~lp762987v201106061858_all.deb as long as the task of updating the linux-firmware in your ubuntu version to this new firmware is not "fix released" (see bug 762987). The kernel currently still in natty-proposed also fixes this issue. You may have to blacklist the rt2860sta staging driver if it interferes with the operation of the rt2800pci. Let me know if you have to do this. Thanks for your report and let me know whether or not everything works for you with those new rt2800pci drivers and firmware. @Ricardo Portugal Thanks for confirming that kernel 2.6.39 fixes the issue. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Tags added: rt2800pci ** Tags removed: needs-upstream-testing -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/734865 Title: [STAGING] RT2860 Wireless will not authenticate and connect when on battery power.
