SRU Justification: Impact: The firmware is needed for users to be able to use the wireless card. Without the firmware a user would have to go without wireless or download the firmware from elsewhere first.
How Addressed: Adding the firmware to the linux-firmware package fixes the issue. Patch: Please see http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=cndougla/linux- firmware.git;a=commit;h=fd2b78a22a30f01d7b86409a0cbe9a820f715f3e. Reproduction: Boot with latest Lucid image on affected hardware. Wireless will not function. Regression Potential: Practically zero as the firmware is new and does not overwrite existing files. -- rtl819xE:request firmware fail! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508746 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
