[Bug 331952] Re: [HP 2133 MiniNote laptop] Unexpected and unrecoverable wireless disconnect with B43 driver

 

@ Arjen

I must confess I don't understand why you keep having problems if you
have carefully followed the instructions further up.

The problem seems to be that the hardware drivers for the monitor and
the wireless networking, somehow interfere with one another and also
that the wireless driver doesn't work when first installed. Therefore
what has to be done is:

1. Install and activate proprietary STA wireless driver, then reboot.
2. Apply the patch to the chrome screen driver, then reboot.

If this doesn't work then I don't know what to suggest, as this has
worked for the rest of us. If somebody else can come up with some
suggestions for you to try, then that would be good. If you switch from
the chrome screen driver to the vesa then you should also be able to get
it to work. Alternatively, simply change your screen saver and power
setting to not blank the screen, that should also keep it from
disconnecting the wireless network.

AS it also is a possibility that there is something in the instructions
above which you don't quite understand and therefore they don't get
carried out correctly. If you have a friend who has experience with
Linux who is willing to help you, then it is possible tthat he
understand the instructions and can carry them out. Hmmm!

Good luck with it,

Ole
