I should also add I'm using a DESKTOP system with Linksys WMP54G v3 wireless NIC. There is no 'disable wireless networking' button on the desktop.
I am NOT using NDIS wrapper, but using the Broadcom drives directly (see 'drivers' section below). lspci -vnn | grep 14e4 14e4:4320 BCM4306 802.11b/g rev 03 02:09.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 03) Subsystem: Linksys Device 0013 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11 Memory at ff9fe000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K] Kernel driver in use: b43-pci-bridge Kernel modules: ssb lshw -C network *-network:0 description: Network controller product: BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller vendor: Broadcom Corporation physical id: 9 bus info: p...@0000:02:09.0 version: 03 width: 32 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: bus_master configuration: driver=b43-pci-bridge latency=64 resources: irq:11 memory:ff9fe000-ff9fffff *-network:1 DISABLED description: Ethernet interface product: 3c905B 100BaseTX [Cyclone] vendor: 3Com Corporation physical id: a bus info: p...@0000:02:0a.0 logical name: eth0 version: 24 serial: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx size: 10MB/s capacity: 100MB/s width: 32 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: pm bus_master cap_list rom ethernet physical tp mii 10bt 10bt-fd 100bt 100bt-fd autonegotiation configuration: autonegotiation=on broadcast=yes driver=3c59x duplex=half latency=64 link=yes maxlatency=10 mingnt=10 multicast=yes port=MII speed=10MB/s resources: irq:11 ioport:dc00(size=128) memory:ff9fdc00-ff9fdc7f memory:f6a00000-f6a1ffff(prefetchable) *-network description: Wireless interface physical id: 1 logical name: wlan0 serial: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx capabilities: ethernet physical wireless configuration: broadcast=yes ip=192.168.100.2 multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11bg Drivers: Add package: b43-fwcutter (use for Linksys WMP54G) automaticall creates the directories under: /lib/firmware/b43 and b43legacy /var/log/dmesg [21]: Should load firmware properly. b43/ucode5.fw b43/pcm5.fw b43/b0g0initvals5.fw b43/b0g0bsinitvals5.fw wpasupplicant is already installed with the Ubuntu distribution. -- ifconfig returns SIOCSIFFLAGS: Unknown error 132 when running commad ifconfig wlan0 up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/464559 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
