The driver is been fixed upstream, so it doesn't even need the linux-wlan-ng package, see http://lists.linux-wlan.com/pipermail/linux-wlan-devel/2008-January/003744.html Hopefully the hardy version will be updated soon.
I also hope it will fix your connection trouble. If you want to test, I'll attach new modules here. You'll have to stop the network, take down the card: sudo ifdown wlan0 sudo modprobe -r prism2_usb sudo modprobe -r p80211 Now unpack the tar.gz and load the modules: tar zxvf linux-wlan-ng_modules_r1847_2.6.22-14-generic.tar.gz #or use Archive Manager sudo insmod ./p80211 wlan_wext_write=1 sudo insmod ./prism2_usb For an installed system (not live CD) you can replace the old modules in /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/wireless/prism2_usb/prism2_usb.ko and /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/wireless/p80211/p80211.ko with these ones and reboot. For the live CD, I just hope the kernel version matches 2.6.22-14... ** Attachment added: "upstream version 1847 prism2_usb and p80211 modules for 2.6.22-14 kernel" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11718550/linux-wlan-ng_modules_r1847_2.6.22-14-generic.tar.gz -- card is not recognized in live session https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/185179 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
