[Bug 564376] Re: Lucid - radeon kms causes iwl3945 to drop connection on youtube but not with mainline

 

ndeubert, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily kernel folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11.1

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Bug description:
  Forgive me if this bug is a duplicate but I didn't see a recent bug
  with these details.... I did a clean install of Kubuntu 10.04 beta 2
  and i noticed the wireless connection would work initially after boot
  and then it would drop and then tray icon would continue to say
  "Connecting" and "Activating" when i right clicked on it and never
  connect again. I did get it to reconnect once after unloading the
  iwl3945 and iwlcore modules and reloading them, then restarting the
  networking init.d script, but that only worked once, every other time
  i had to reboot for it to work again. Most recently though i connected
  it and left it on overnight and it stayed connected fine the whole
  time (i had received IMs meanwhile) and i was able to browse through
  gmail and the web fine but as soon as I went to a YouTube link it
  died right away. So then i installed the mainline kernel version:
  2.6.34-999 from  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
  ppa/mainline/daily/current/ and tried the same YouTube link and
  everything works fine.

  Previous kernel versions I was using that had the problem:
  2.6.32-19
  2.6.32-21

  By the way in case it matters I was using google chrome as the browser and the wireless network I am connected too is using DD-WRT v24-sp1with WPA Personal. My laptop is an IBM Thinkpad T60 and here is my lspci:

   $ lsmod | grep iw
  iwl3945                75395  0
  iwlcore               118803  1 iwl3945
  mac80211              229304  2 iwl3945,iwlcore
  cfg80211              148737  3 iwl3945,iwlcore,mac80211

  So for now it seems to be working fine with the mainline kernel I installed but if there is any other info/testing i can provide let me know.
  Thanks,
  Nick
