K8BeBop: This sounds like a different problem. My problem with the nVidia drivers was just a kernel version mismatch; I could see as much in the system logs. Probably worth opening a new bug for your specific issue.
I'm a total newb to Ubuntu and linux in general (but enough of a computer nerd to want to use the latest-and-greatest version rather than the stable one), but I'd be glad to try and help with that if I can! On topic: As of today, still no joy with the wireless. If I opt to activate the ipw3945 restricted driver, that allows me to use wifi, however its reliability is suspect (tends to disconnect arbitrarily after a few hours), and lspci shows the device itself. I had much greater success with the iwl3945 driver, and would much, much, much prefer to use that one. However, the iwl3945 module simply refuses to load, because it doesn't appear to exist in the 2.6.22-12 modules package. More and more this is seeming like an omission/oversight rather than an actual software problem. I will try to see if I can compile a current version of the iwl3945 driver myself later tonight if no one has posted any other solutions by the time I get home (8 hours or so from this posting). -- [Gutsy] Upgrade to 2.6.22-12 causes iwl3945 to stop functioning https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144252 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
