[Bug 1456656] Re: Lenovo G50-45 Wireless card Qualcomm Atheros Device not Working.

 

Subin, as per http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-
netbooks/lenovo-g-series-laptops/g50-45-notebook-lenovo an update to
your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (34). If you update
to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it
change anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then
please mark this report Status Confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding.
