ndiswrapper wg311v3 AES kernel oops

[Christian Roessner]

Hi,

I do have a Netgear WG311v3 (sad, but true). Unfortunately there seems to be no open source driver available, so I chose the worse variant taking ndiswrapper.

I installed a 64bit version of the driver:

croessner@desktop ~ $ ndiswrapper -l
wg311v3 : driver installed
 device (11AB:1FAA) present

The driver seems to be loaded fine, but using WPA2+AES, the NetworkManager-applet rotates endless, and some stuff at the kernel side dies.

Hope, someone cares about this and may be able to fix it :-)

I have attached a bundled log file, which was taken _after_ a reboot of the system. I could not open firefox anymore, when ndiswrapper crashed. So I saved the relevant part of the oops to a file, which you can see above.

Thanks

Christian

Today, I tried ndiswrapper again following this thread:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=320111&page=3

Same result. So this really seems to be a ndiswrapper bug

[John M. Linebarger (jmlineb)]

I have the same issue. I have upgraded to ndiswrapper 1.55, but I still have this problem. From searching the Web, it appears that the issue may lie in the scheduling mechanism for the 2.6.28 kernel, so the ndiswrapper problem may be fixed by a kernel upgrade. I tried to do so, but was simply unable to install the kernel under Ubuntu--I kept running into problems with modules. (The kernel compiled fine; I just could never figure out how to transfer the modules from one image to another, so nothing worked when I booted into the new kernel.)

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner.
There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test the current Ubuntu development version (10.10). If you can test it, and it is still an issue, we would appreciate if you could upload updated logs by running apport-collect 295120, and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

[John M. Linebarger (jmlineb)]

Uh, thanks, but I upgraded Ubuntu and replaced my NIC a long time ago ...
