Hello, I know that the bug is closed, but I think I still have the bug in Hardy. (at least the symptoms I am experiencing are very similar to what is described.)
I have a Medion 8383XL PC which comes with a Ralink card which used to work fine in Kubuntu Feisty (7.04), with the rt2570 driver (I believe it was). I could use the kde systemsettings -> Network settings to enter my WEP key. Now, I compiled a cvs serialmonkey driver in Kubuntu Hardy (8.04) (the folder name on my computer is rt2570-cvs-2008062414). Now, when I go to the kde systemsettings, the keyboard alone freezes. I can still do things with the mouse. I can shut down or restart, but it sort-of hangs... but because my power button is assigned to "shut down", I can press it to shut down cleanly. As far as I can remember, this occurs also if I do "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart". I have configured my card through the file /etc/networking.d/interfaces. To be honest, I haven't tried it much -- I tried to connect with both WEP and WPA yesterday, but no luck... I could not obtain an IP address from my router. I could get WEP working with a cvs driver from serialmonkey -- the folder which the .tar.gz extracted to was called rt2570-cvs-2008060113. I was wondering if anyone needs more info, as I would be happy to provide. Also is there a workaround for this? -- Crash/freeze when restarting networking, rt2570 wireless USB (DWL-G122, rev B1) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/37370 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
