Got another crash, although I barely use ath5k. I used to be able to connect to some open wireless networks at home, now I can't but it still kills my kernel once in a while.
I think that ath5k should not be allowed in the release of jaunty, since it so buggy and may crash the system. I have had a bad experience with it already, when I could not install Ubuntu 8.10 on a Compaq laptop. One had to blacklist it. I will try to go back to madwifi. It is a pity, it is not open source, however it works and does not freeze my system all of a sudden. As I figured from this thread https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=489078, people do not realize how faulty ath5k is (blaming wifi card and so). At the same time I think people here at Ubuntu do not seem to help them to point to this problem. -- ath5k locks up system in jaunty - "ath5k phy0: noise floor calibration timeout" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341952 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
