There is a new STA driver on a Broadcom page: http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php It would be nice to try that one. Maybe it solves everything ...
The version I have installed (through the hardware driver widget on the menu) is 5.10.79.10. There are instructions for making? (=compiling?) a new driver that can be installed, but it is way over my head, unfortunately. I might break the whole installation. Like I wrote earlier, I have installed the patched driver, from the deb file, the same as Ole used. I just called it by the wrong name, a patch. It just didn't help. The connection problem still there. The wireless connection only stays up if I don't allow the machine to 'save power', e.g. by blanking the screen or going to sleep. If somebody is interested to see diagnostic output from my machine, I'm sure I can manage to post it as long as I know which command and which switches to use. -- [HP 2133 MiniNote laptop] Unexpected and unrecoverable wireless disconnect with B43 driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331952 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
