I've tried: madwifi) set -- $@ ath_hal shift ;; ath_hal) set -- $@ ath_pci ath_rate_amrr ath_rate_minstrel \ ath_rate_onoe ath_rate_sample wlan wlan_acl \ wlan_ccmp wlan_scan_ap wlan_scan_sta wlan_tkip \ wlan_wep wlan_xauth shift ;; Which works, but I'm not confident is the correct fix. ** Summary changed: - 2.6.27 REGRESSION, hangs during boot while preparing restricted drivers + 2.6.27 REGRESSION, hangs during boot while preparing restricted drivers when ath_hal is blacklisted -- 2.6.27 REGRESSION, hangs during boot while preparing restricted drivers when ath_hal is blacklisted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/262539 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
