I'm having the same problem -- last character of my ESSID is being dropped with 2.6.20-16. Using linux-image-2.6.20-16-386 and wireless- tools-28-1ubuntu3; all packages current as of today for Feisty Fawn / 7.04.
If I boot into an older kernel (linux-image-2.6.17-11-386 (same system, not changing any other packages), this problem goes away. (Unless I've implemented the extra-character workaround in /etc/network/interfaces, in which case the problem comes back, but anyway....) Interestingly, just after the upgrade to Feisty Fawn, the r818x (and the ieee80211-rtl it depends on) module no longer loads automatically. A simple "modprobe r818x" fixes this, but shouldn't be necessary. No evidence yet this is related to the ESSID truncation. -- ESSID gets truncated https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/74672 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
