[Bug 1389716] Re: [14.04.1] NIC Qualcomm Atheros Device not working + integreted GPU not used

 

** Description changed:

- Hi all, 
- I found this thread and I had to join in because I got the same issue with my brand new MSI GS70 2QE gaming notebook.
- I have managed to install Ubuntu 14.04.1 in dual boot along side windonw 8.1 with UEFI and secure boot enabled.
- To switch between OS I got 2 ways, is either go to the BIOS and chnge the BBS HDD drive order form windows to ubuntu or I let the notebook boot normaly till GRUB comes up and choose from there if i want windows or ubuntu to boot, for that matter i use GRUB method.
- Now when I am in Ubuntu every works fine but my wi-fi, if I use an RJ45 cable i do get internet though.
+ With my brand new MSI GS70 2QE gaming notebook, my WiFi doesn't work. I
+ installed the lastest kernel 3.18.0-031800rc3-generic and run apt-get
+ update and upgrade but with no result.
+ 
+ WORKAROUND: I use an RJ45 cable i do get internet though.
  
  The issuing of the comand "ifconfig -a" is as follow:
-

- therefore I cannot figure out how to get my wi-fi working, I installed
- the lastest kernel 3.18.0-031800rc3-generic and run apt-get update and
- upgrade but with no result.
- 
- Is sad that i cannot get wi-fi in ubuntu since i use it quite a lot in
- ssh, SFTP and the like since i do code in it.
- 
- Lastly if can be of any help when i boot ubuntu before the user screen
- password appears i do get this message:
- 
+ Lastly, when i boot Ubuntu before the user screen password appears get the message:
  2.065748 Bluetooth: Patch file not found ar3k/AthrBT_0x000002000.dfu
  2.065781 Bluetooth: Loading path file failed
  
- EDIT: Just to add anoter issue when in Ububtu the integrated GPU does not kick in and my lapton uses the dscrate GPU card (GTX 970M) instead, i can see that because whenever time the power bottom is red means that the notebook is using the Nvidia card.
- Is not a big deal but If you guys now why i cannot use the HD 4600 integrated card would be nice, so i can save some battery power.
- 
- Thanks for the help, if you need more information just ask I will do anything i can to help you figure out the problem

Title:
  [14.04.1] NIC  Qualcomm Atheros Device not working + integreted GPU
  not used

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  With my brand new MSI GS70 2QE gaming notebook, my WiFi doesn't work.
  I installed the lastest kernel 3.18.0-031800rc3-generic and run apt-
  get update and upgrade but with no result.

  WORKAROUND: I use an RJ45 cable i do get internet though.

  The issuing of the comand "ifconfig -a" is as follow:
  eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 44:8a:5b:6e:ec:2c
  inet addr:192.168.1.101 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

  RX bytes:327314 (327.3 KB) TX bytes:327314 (327.3 KB)

  as you can see no wlan or wlan0 showing up.

  
  Lastly, when i boot Ubuntu before the user screen password appears get the message:
  2.065748 Bluetooth: Patch file not found ar3k/AthrBT_0x000002000.dfu
  2.065781 Bluetooth: Loading path file failed
