I confirm the bug (Thinkpad T61p with iwl4965 from linux-backports- modules-hardy) but not the workaround (only reset can bring wifi back on). On software rfkill (Fn-F5 here) both bluetooth and wifi go off, but then wifi goes back on in 15–20 seconds. Pressing Fn-F5 again causes bluetooth to go on and wifi to go off, and after 15–20 seconds wifi is on again. Pressing Fn-F5 quickly a few times can cause wifi to go off forever (i.e. until reset). -- iwl3945 | iwl4965: Wireless can't be activated after disabling kill switch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193970 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 277063] [NEW] Wired and wireless connection to the same router cause confusion
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: network-manager I have a U.S.Robotics ADSL router here, with both wired and wireless connection to my laptop. They both work when booted with the cable plugged in, nm applet shows both, route -n shows: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric RefUse Iface 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 00 eth0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 00 wlan0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1000 00 eth0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG0 00 eth0 It seems that the wired connection is actually used to transmit packets. When I unplug the cable, the wireless connection is used. When I plug the cable again, the network is put in a weird state: some connections succeed, some do not. A typical ping loses the first 5–7 packets but all the following ones return; sometimes the first packet returns and all the following ones do not, or none return. route -n is very similar, only the first two entries are swapped. DNS does not work; /etc/resolv.conf contains: # Generated by NetworkManager nameserver 192.168.1.1 nameserver 192.168.1.1 while normally the router IP is listed only once. The nm applet has the same display in either case, with both wired and wireless connection up. Clicking on the wireless connection to reconnect it brings the state back to normal where everything works. Clicking on the wired connection does the opposite: it changes the state from working to the anomalous one. So it seems that the bad thing happens when the wired connection is getting enabled while the wireless connection was up.

[Bug 256206] Re: No support for gadu-gadu
Does not work for me: I can now add a Gadu-Gadu account, but then I attempted to add a known contact which was online: she appeared as offline, and did not receive my messages. The contact did not even stay saved. When I added myself as a contact, I could see myself online and open a chat window with myself, but I did not receive the echo of my own messages (this works in Pidgin which shows that the protocol allows that). Empathy does not support registering new Gadu-Gadu accounts, nor sending/receiving contact list to the server, nor getting information about a user, nor searching for users. (Unfortunately I don't have a Linux program which is able to register Gadu-Gadu accounts for you to test that; pidgin and ekg seem to be broken in this respect. The original Windows client from http://www .gadu-gadu.pl/pobierz could be used; it has a Polish interface, and does not work well enough under Wine - the captcha does not show.) ** Changed in: empathy (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- No support for gadu-gadu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/256206 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
