Public bug reported: This bug is simply https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux- source-2.6.15/+bug/30766 appearing again in linux-source-2.6.17.
Quoting http://acx100.sourceforge.net/wiki/Firmware: <quote> For ACX111 there are only 2 really supported firmwares, and people have had best results with the first one: acx111 firmware 1.2.1.34 mirror acx111 firmware 1.2.0.30 mirror </quote> However, after testing the knot3 cd on my laptop and noticing that wifi wasn't working, I saw that again the 2.3.1.31 firmware is loaded per default. And as stated before, the 0.3.2.1 acx driver shipped by ubuntu does *not* work with the 2.3.1.31 firmware. The output of 'dmesg | grep acx' states it: [17179711.988000] acx: firmware 'Rev 2.3.1.31' does not work well with this driver [17179711.988000] acx: form factor 0x01 ((mini-)PCI / CardBus), radio type 0x16 (Radia), EEPROM version 0x05, uploaded firmware 'Rev 2.3.1.31' (0x03010101) [17179711.988000] acx v0.3.21: net device wlan0, driver compiled against wireless extensions 20 and Linux 2.6.17-7-generic So the default firmware for the acx111 driver should be firmware 1.2.1.34 instead of 2.3.1.31 Could anyone please confirm? ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.17 (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- [acx111] default firmware not working for acx d-link dwl-g650+ https://launchpad.net/bugs/60905 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
