Okay, I spake to soon. The rt61 drivers work only for a bit then they stop responding. Sometimes I have an IP address, sometimes not. Either way only rebooting fixed it.
I managed to find the Windows XP 64 bit drivers out there and used them with ndiswrapper I used this HOWTO: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=564419 And then I had to put this in my /etc/network/interfaces: iface wlan0 inet dhcp wireless-essid myhiddenessid wireless-mode Managed pre-up wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -B -f/var/log/wpa_supplicant.wlan0.log post-down killall -q wpa_supplicant Without the "Managed", it defaults to Auto and will fail to associate with my AP. I found the extractable drivers at driverguide. The filename was: C54Ri_C54RC_DRV_WHQL_V3.01.00.exe Even though an EXE it unzips fine. I used the rt61.inf in the WINX64 directory. So far it is working, hopefully this one stays up. Hopefully the rt2x00 + rt61pci can be fixed and start working again. Really a shame that it was working great in Intrepid but it is now not working. -- Upgrading to Jaunty breaks rt61pci wireless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366170 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
