I am still having trouble with this bug. I can see access points, but authentication times out every time. I have uninstalled then reinstalled b43-fwcutter using apt-get and synaptic multiple times. I have also tried using the install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh script. Still, same problem. I see the access points, but am unable to connect. When I look at syslog while it is trying to connect, one odd thing is this:
NetworkManager: <info> Old device 'eth1' activating, won't change. I don't really know what that refers to. I just upgraded to Hardy yesterday and have installed all recommended updates. This is highly frustrating as everything seemed to work fine with Gutsy. -- [Hardy]b43-fwcutter install script fails to fetch firmware in first run https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197819 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
