I've attached a patch which changes some of the time-outs for enabling the CPU and uploading firmware to the wireless adapter. This seems to make things better on my N150, but doesn't 100% resolve the problem.
I've added more debug to the driver as well. Maybe that will help track down the issue. It looks like the driver queues up a bunch of packets to send the firmware to a CPU on the wireless adapter. And then it polls the adapter to see if it's ready. I set the firmware-loading time-out to 10 seconds at one point, but it still seemed to fail. It seems like there is a race between firmware set-up and something else in the driver. ** Patch added: "Increase time-outs for CPU init and firmware upload" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/708712/+attachment/2593909/+files/rtl8192e-timing-20111112.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/708712 Title: Wireless Card RTL819Xe on a Samsung N150 netbook To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/708712/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
