Bug Description
This bug should affect Ubuntu installs having the above kernel (all 12.04.4 LTS or 13.10 installs will update to it) and the Intel Wireless 7260 adapter.
info on my machine:
uname -r -v
3.11.
I have a Lenovo T440s with Ubuntu 12.04.3 installed, where I've installed the latest kernel using:
sudo apt-get install linux-generic-
As normal, I updated the kernel to 3.11.0-17-generic. After restart, I could no longer find the wifi adapter to connect with in the top bar network applet nor was wlan0 showing up in ifconfig. I then proceeded to remove 3.11.0-17-generic and booted using 3.11.0-15-generic where my wifi adapter is working well.
