[Bug 1251256] Re: Qualcomm Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter Can't Connect After Screen Locks

 

If you are using Ubuntu 12.04, you can add the pali PPA for the latest
open source graphics drivers and linux-firmware.

sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:pali/graphics-drivers; sudo apt-get
update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y

Otherwise if you just want linux-firmware:

cd /tmp; wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/161429534/linux-
firmware_1.118_all.deb; sudo dpkg -i linux*.deb

Or you can upgrade to Ubuntu 13.10/14.04
