I cloned the git repo for the Ubuntu kernel and I built a number of test kernels. It seems like the problem starts in 3.18.0-1.1, here are the kernels tested:
Good 3.16.0-23.31 3.16.0-24.32 3.16.0-25.33 3.16.0-28.38 * Bad 3.18.0-1.1 3.18.0-7.8 3.19.0-1.1 3.19.0-10.10 3.19.0-12.12 3.19.0-13.13 * - On this kernel it does work, but I have strange issues with it which were not present on earlier kernels. It is slower to establish a connection, and also started having intermittent connectivity problems (it indicated it was still connected, but I wasn't able to ping my router, for instance). I would be happy to perform a complete git bisect to help isolate the problem further, but as it was I had to do this a bit manually as git bisect would choose a commit between releases, and therefore there was no debian/rules file so that I could perform the deb package build with fakeroot. The instructions on the KernelBisection wiki page point to this page for kernel building instructions: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel The problem is that that page only contains the instructions which work for a release (i.e. requires the debian/rules file and so forth). If you could point me to instructions for building it in the intermediate commits, I would be happy to do it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1442411 Title: Intel 3160 wireless card no longer able to connect to wifi networks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1442411/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
