[Joseph Salisbury <joseph.salisbury@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report on this issue.

However, given the number of bugs that the Kernel Team receives during
any development cycle it is impossible for us to review them all.
Therefore, we occasionally resort to using automated bots to request
further testing. This is such a request.

  With the recent release of this Ubuntu release, would like to confirm
if this bug is still present. Please test again with the newer kernel
and indicate in the bug if this issue still exists or not.

You can update to the latest development kernel by simply running the
following commands in a terminal window:

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

If the bug still exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to
Confirmed. If the bug no longer exists, change the bug status from
Incomplete to Fix Released.

If you want this bot to quit automatically requesting kernel tests, add
a tag named: bot-stop-nagging.

 Thank you for your help, we really do appreciate it.


** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

** Tags added: kernel-request-3.13.0-24.46

Title:
  14e4:4365 [Dell Inspiron 15 3521] Regulatory domain is not set by
  default after install for wifi

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After installation of ubuntu 13.10, /etc/default/crda contains the line
  REGDOMAIN=
  i.e. there is no regulatory domain set for the cfg80211 kernel module.

  iw reg get shows a
  country 00
  when I run iw list, it shows channel 12 and 13 as
  "(passive scanning, no IBSS)"
  (which is normal given that the reg domain is not set or the default one)

  hence, I can't even see a public wifi hotspot on channel 13 using
  ubuntu 13.10, in a local fast food restaurant with a big yellow M.
  It's the second one, and they really like to broadcast on channel 13,
  here....

  As the installation process knowns the local time, it should be able
  to set the regulatory domain, either to EU or FR in my case, and avoid
  being forced to reboot into Windows (I had the option to), ignoring
  the root cause of the problem.

  So, if I quote the text in comment in /etc/default/crda, every default
  ubuntu installation "may infrige  on local legislature" (not in my
  case here)

  the bug is already in ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

  this is irrelevant but I use the bcmwl-kernel-source driver for my
  Dell 1704 Wireless card based on broadcom BCM4312 chipset on an
  Inspiron 15 (3521).
