[Bug 1142385] Re: B43 Wireless Autoconnect Failure
Callum Hutchinson, could you please confirm this issue exists with the
latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If the issue remains,
could you please just make a comment to this.
Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue.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-v3.12
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.
** Description changed:
- Hi all,
- I installed raring to test whether this bug existed in it and quantal too. In the 3.8+ kernels there seems to be an issue with the b43 drivers, my wireless works however it won't automatically connect to my hidden wireless network. I have to go into network manager on each login and manually select the option to connect, it takes a while but then the connection works fine.
- I know this didn't exist in 3.7.x because I was using those kernels absolutely fine, it's only when I tried 3.8 on both quantal and raring that the issue arose.
