Echoing the incredulity of this being marked invalid. This is still very much a problem and continues to affect distros into 13.04 with the specific card mentioned. The card, as mentioned, cannot be easily swapped due to hardware whitelisting by Lenovo, so a solution is still necessary. Please un

Well, no, we can't. I can't, at least. Look, I came here to report that I was having issues with a particular card. It doesn't work the way it's supposed to. I'm here because this is the open-source community's forum for announcing and working toward fixing bugs in arbitrary, probably-proprietary

No joy for me, Pauli. I tried simply copying the firmware included with the new driver into /lib/firmware/rtlwifi and verified the SHA1 sum matched the one you listed. I rebooted the machine (to avoid dealing with any rmmod/modprobe shenanigans) and continue to see ~10% packet loss due to repeated

Sorry, I thought I made it clear with my reply that I checked the sha1sum on the firmware and it matched the one you listed. "No joy for me, Pauli. I tried simply copying the firmware included with the new driver into /lib/firmware/rtlwifi and verified the SHA1 sum matched the one you listed." Th

Just tried that, a7x. If anything, performance actually seems worse now. I'm now seeing close to 40% packet loss coupled with rapid, frequent Reason 6 dissociations (the cause of said packet loss). My /lib/firmware/rtlwifi/rtl8192cfw.bin still has the sha1 sum listed by Pauli earlier, so presumab

Paul, can you post the exact steps you went through to obtain and build both the latest driver and firmware, just so we have it here for posterity? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net

Thanks, peter b, but I'm not even at that stage yet. The issue I am having is that I cannot compile the driver because of apparent code errors reported by the compiler. If/when I can get the thing to compile, I will be sure to follow your tips from #193/194. -- You received this bug notification
