I have removed the atheros modules from my system and get no more oops during bootup.
Sound is still missing... The mixers do work and I can change all the usual settings in those applications, but there is nothing to be heared, independent of the mixer settings I choose. Maybe that hardware mixer of the thinkpads that is usually set with the volume up/down buttons is muted? That mixer is not one of the "normal" ones and can not get set in software AFAIK. Using the volume up/down buttons changes the master volume on feisty. Maybe it is leaving the hardware mixer alone now? This works with older ubuntu releases (and feisty with kernels < 2.6.20-1). ** Changed in: linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu) Status: Rejected => Unconfirmed -- No sound on thinkpad T43p in feisty https://launchpad.net/bugs/78299 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
