Another addendum for others trying to get this card working in Edgy: With just a little manual configuration, this card is functioning fine with the current drivers in Edgy.
First I configured it in network-admin. Then I edited /etc/network/interfaces to add these lines to the "iface wlan0 ..." stanza: post-up iwlist scan post-up iwconfig wlan0 ap XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX (where XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX is the address of my access point) That's all. In total, my wlan0 stanza in /etc/network/interfaces looks like this: iface wlan0 inet static wireless-essid <my SSID> address 192.168.1.37 # my IP address netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.1 post-up iwlist scan post-up iwconfig wlan0 ap <my access point address> ...with only the "post-up" lines having been added by hand. I suspect a DHCP configuration could be made to work similarly. So this is not as bad as I thought at first. Still, it would be better if this hardware could work automagically... -- rt61pci driver fails with Airlink101 AWLH5026 https://launchpad.net/bugs/67607 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
