Ok, I've tried the patch, and either I'm doing something wrong (very probable), or it doesn't work.
I tried to ways to apply it: 1) I downloaded the sources for 'network-manager' from packages.ubuntu.com for the relevant kernel, both the orig.tar.gz and the diff.gz files. I unpacked the orig.tar.gz and applied the diff.gz files with 'patch -p1'. I then applied the patch provided here, also with 'patch -p1'. I then tried to 'make deb', but apparently, there's no information about making deb packages in the Makefile, so I stopped there. 2) I installed the network manager sources through 'apt-get source network-manager' to /usr/src/. I then applied the provided patch to the source files, again with 'patch -p1...', and then tried 'dpkg-buildpackage -b'. This created a bunch of .deb files, which I installed with dpkg -i *.deb. So far, everything was looking good. I rebooted, but now network-manager doesn't start at all any more, and nothing I do seems to get my network up and running anymore. I then tried to reinstall the original network-manager package (that I had downloaded beforehand, to be safe), but while the installation went smoothly, I still have no working network manager. I'm probably going to go for a clean reinstall of jaunty this evening or tomorrow. So, if you can see where I went wrong, please drop me a hint. Or if you need info from any log files, just let me know. -- Option iCon 225 (HSDPA USB stick) cannot connect (Jaunty Jackalope 9.04) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368325 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
