[Bug 1363486] [NEW] Intel WiFi N7260 doesn't work on HP G6
You have been subscribed to a public bug:
I was using Ubuntu 12.04 with a kernek prior to 3.11 to get my new Intel
N7260 to work I had to backload the driver for it, I used this
backports-3.11-rc3-1.tar.bz2, It worked fine until a new kernel was
released I think it was 3.11 but for sure 3.13 then the card was hard
locked and no matter what I tried I couldn't get it to work. I went on
the Ubuntu forum and several people there tried to help. I tried a lot
of commands and up dates but nothing has worked. Except for
backloading an older kernel. The laptop I am using is an HP G6. The
strange thing about this is I have another HP laptop an Envy 15T with
the same Intel N7260 WiFi card and Ubuntu 14.04 and kernel 3.13 and it
works fine. So I suppose there is something about the 3.11 and newer
that doesn't allow the on/off push button on the G6 to work.
