Intel 3945abg WLAN doesn't work since kernel 2.6.27-7

[newur]

Binary package hint: kernel-image-2.6.27-7-generic-di

Intrepid doesn't recognize the Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG in my Dell M1330 with kernels 27-7 and 27-10 (generic). iwconfig and ifconfig shows only the cable LAN. For the moment I changed back to 27-4, but hope you can fix this.

Hi newur,

Can you attach your dmesg output? Thanks.

[newur (newur)]

Of course, here it is.

And here with the generic Kernel I'm using right know (last one who supports my WLAN). Maybe you need it to compare.

[Leann Ogasawara (leannogasawara)]

Thanks newur,

I noticed the following in your dmesg output:

[ 13.727089] iwl3945: Unknown symbol lbm_cw_print_ssid

Looks like you have linux-backports-modules installed. Can you try the newer 2.6.27-11 kernel in intrepid-proposed? I suspect this is likely a duplicate of bug 294667. Thanks.

[newur (newur)]

Yeah, it works with 2.6.27-11.

Thank you very much.

Thanks for the note. I'm going to go ahead and mark this as a duplicate of bug 294667. Thanks.
