Since the 4.4.0-63-generic update until the current 4.4.0-70-generic I have stopped working the network with the wifi adpator rtl8192cu and not only the network but the system was frozen and did not start with the adapter Market Stall. However with the adapter removed, the system boots smoothly. And it re-freezes the moment I insert usb_wifi. Well I have overcome this error by loading the additional drivers as follows: >From the terminal Git clone https://github.com/pvaret/rtl8192cu-fixes.git Sudo dkms add ./rtl8192cu-fixes Sudo dkms install 8192cu / 1.10 Then we edit the file
Sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf And we add at the end the line Blacklist rtl8192cu We rebooted and at least it worked for me. In the web of git says that we say: Sudo cp ./rtl8192cu-fixes/blacklist-native-rtl8192.conf /etc/modprobe.d/ But that did not work for me. The operation is somewhat irregular sometimes starts at first but other times the speed is very reduced and I must restart the PC or the router to get a good performance. regards -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1666421 Title: kernel 4.4.0-63 with USB WLAN RTL8192CU freezes desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1666421/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
