[Bug 819239] Re: NetworkManager turn-on power managment of wireless

 

This is certainly not caused by NetworkManager, we've had similar issues
before, they are usually caused by the pm-utils package. Regardless, it
is a bug in the driver if power management makes it lose connections or
unable to connect (thus I'm reassigning this to the linux package).

As a workaround, please try to remove or disable the following script: 
/usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/wireless

Thanks!

** Package changed: network-manager (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu)
