A couple a weeks ago I´ve upgrades to gutsy wireless was not working I follow the trick to turn on/off the wireless switch while connecting and this worked 50% of the time.
But I've keep feisty kernel 2.6.20 for the "just in case" situation and when booting with this kernel I don't have problem connecting to public or secured spots. But when booting this kernel I've got several segmentation faults. The iwlwifi site says that the driver still is in a development, I've tried several snapshot in the past and is not as estable as ipw3945, ie lost connection under heave use, can't connect after suspend, etc., so far this issues are being solved, but IMHO is not ready for a production release. If you want to load iwl3945 on boot you should blacklist ipw3945, ie create a file blacklist-ipw3945 under /etc/modprobe.d, which contains the line blacklist ipw3945 This will prevent the automatic load of this module and iwl3945 should be loaded instead. PD: I was doing this from my memory so better take a look at ubuntu wiki howto blacklist a module. If you want to undo this just remove the file blacklist-ipw3945. -- [Gutsy]Network Manager Applet can't connect wireless with ipw3945 driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/121439 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
