hi infu, I've pretty much done everything he's mentioned plus I've tried about 4 different distros' default AND compiled the new driver manually. I'm running the latest Ubuntu currently but have tried many. The issue is, it does work periodically ... but when it doesn't it makes the WiFi light on my Dell D620 go crazy while it fills the logs with what I posted ... eventually it levels off and the WiFi light is solid and everything is ok for a bit until the light goes crazy again and more errors in the log file and dmesg.
I'm hoping the machine is just too new and requires a newer firmware or something. I've scoured the net and there are quite a few people who've run into this issue :-) -- SpEnT -- ipw3945 produces 99% cpu, making my laptop unusable https://launchpad.net/bugs/48395 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
