Lucious Daniels Jr, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc5 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/568090 Title: ath5k should be loaded with nohwcrypt parameter Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After a lengthy thread, I was able to get to the bottom of my poor web browsing performance in Lucid Beta 2. Basically I kept gettng the "Waiting for <insert site here>..." status on whatever browser I used. Pages would load after a really long time, or sometimes not at all. My laptop uses the AR2413 chipset, which utilizes the ath5k wireless module. We were able to find that loading the module with the nohwcrypt parameter fixed my problem: sudo modprobe ath5k nohwcrypt psyke83 from the forums showed me how to automatically load the ath5k module with the said parameter on reboot. sudo sh -c "echo 'options ath5k nohwcrypt' >/etc/modprobe.d/custom- wireless.conf" Hopefully this information can help others with similar hardware. Whether this should be a default for Lucid, I am not sure because I don't know if it affects everyone the same. The thread is pasted below for full details of everything I tried to find the solution. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1441818 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/568090/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
