Alright, sorry it took a while. I found out that the crypto module loads the wrong alg. module if you use the backports modules. I placed modified lbm packages at http://people.ubuntu.com/~smb/bug322434/
With that installed I was able to use the ipw2200 from LBM and connect to my AP. Could you please try whether this works for you as well? |

It is in progress, really. ;-) The only thing is that it probably does not need an explicit Hardy task since it is a versioned LBM, but ok. |

description |
My Dell Inspiron 9300's wifi stopped connecting to my access point with kernel update 2.6.24-22. I am able to boot with -21 and have working wifi. Later kernel updates have not fixed the issue either (the latest one I have is -23).
Symptoms: Network Manager applet shows it is trying to connect to my access point, and sees it and other access points around as well. But rather than connect, it asks me for my WEP key info after a while, then tries for a while, asks for WEP info, ad nauseam. In that sense it looks like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/284308
My writeup of my system is here: http://www.heikkitoivonen.net/linux/ubuntu-8.04-9300.html
Will attach other info. |
SRU justification:
Impact: In order to have the wireless drivers from compat-wireless living beside of the ones that come with the stock kernel (or ubuntu modules) the mac80211 stack gets modified, so the exported symbols are unique and also the module names for the stack get prefixed. The modification missed out some request_module calls where the stack tries to get certain cryptographic algorithms (wep, pkip, ...). These calls still request the modules from the base package. However the loaded modules will not interact with the modified stack. This results in being able to see access points but always being asked for the passphrase.
Fix: Adapt the munging script to find and replace the requested module names.
Test: See bug report. Unable to connect to an encrypted AP with drivers from LBM (ipw2200 in that case).
