There is an inherent problem in putting the driver in backports. To get backports the person must use their wireless card to download the package, if the problem crops up during download it will not resume on the next reboot. Theoretically it would keep kernel panicking until they hooked up ethernet and then downloaded the package. This, to me, seems absolutely unacceptable when ubuntu is touting the new network-manager and improved wireless functionality.
PS> Backports worked for me too, my custom compiled driver got in the way when I installed it the last time. -- iwlagn causes kernel panic on 802.11n wifi https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276990 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
