Well, not that I'd tell you are wrong, Eric, but the problem isn't in linux kernel itself. To get AR3011 working by default I've just removed libmpt-runtime as in this bug report http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=641749 To be honest, actually I've got Acer TimelineX and acer_wmi got some complaints about device state, so I've rebooted into win7 and turned up my AR3011 -> reboot into Ubuntu, but with laptops without software switches like that shouldn't be the case.
Now it works flawlessly again, without any custom kernels or dkms. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #641749 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=641749 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/714862 Title: Atheros AR3011 cannot be turned up/is not recognized.
