Public bug reported:
I know, restricted drivers not supported, but this may help with other
bugs around this chipset. Samsung X60 laptop, Centrino Duo with ATI
Mobility Radeon X1600 graphics (apparently designed for Windows XP, but
it has never actually run it ;) ), 8.04 beta from Kubuntu branch.
Observed behaviour: laptop wireless works flawlessly; enable restricted
drivers for ATI card, on next reboot cannot connect to wireless; try
modprobe -r, turning wireless switch on and off, manually assigned essid
etc., no affect. Remove restricted drivers, connection restores.
Coincidence? Not likely. Conspiracy to ensure I don't use restricted
drivers? Maybe, but I'm saving my conspiracy theories for OOXML
standardisation analysis...
