apport information ** Tags added: saucy
** Description changed: Booting Ubuntu 13.04 32bit on a Lenovo W520, I get no wifi at startup. Network manager shows only Wired, Broadband and VPN. In dmesg, I see multiple instances of "vmalloc allocation failure". See attached dmesg-w520-3.8.0-25-generic.txt One of them happens at loading of iwlwifi (which may explain the lack of wifi). The only workaround I found was to stick with the 12.10 kernel (3.5). --- ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8.1 Architecture: i386 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: osm 2342 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=a54e9178-f18d-477a-a32e-894e28298021 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-11-06 (223 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release i386 (20121017.2) IwConfig: wwan0 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions. eth1 no wireless extensions.
