[Bug 1261195] Re: Kubuntu 13.10 AMD64 asus eeepc 1810 - no wireless connection

 

I cannot use the Alpha1 of Trusty from
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/Alpha1/Kubuntu booting the CD gives
only a black screen.

I reinstalled from scratch a 13.10 version formatting the / partition.

The network management plasmoid on status bar shows an unreachable
network; but trying to connect to this network and saying cancel to the
password request for WPA, starts some kind of scan and the other wifi
networks appears; so I'm able to connect.

Title:
  Kubuntu 13.10 AMD64 asus eeepc 1810 - no wireless connection

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have an Asus eeepc 1018P that worked correctly with Kubuntu 11.10
  AMD64.

  When I tried to upgrade to the last version I lost the wireless
  functionality:

     in the network-manager widget no network is listed (I have done all
  the test at 1 meter from the access point - all other devices in my
  house connect regularly to this network)

     using wifi-radar no network is listed.

  I tried different versions from the install CD or installed on HD.
  Here the results:

  Ubuntu 13.10 AMD64 from CD - NO NETWORK LISTED

  Kubuntu 13.10 AMD64 from CD - NO NETWORK LISTED

  Kubuntu 13.10 AMD64 from HD - NO NETWORK LISTED

  Kubuntu 12.10 AMD64 from CD - SUCCESS I see the networks and I'm able
  to connect to the access point

  Kubuntu 12.10 AMD64 from HD - NO NETWORK LISTED

  The strange thing is that 12.10 worked when booted from the installer
  CD; bun once installed on the HD after the reboot the networks are
  missing.

  What can I  try?
