2008-10-01 09:56:51 trautenberg description Description: Ubuntu intrepid (development branch) Release: 8.10 Kernel: 2.6.27-4 After installing the new kernel and getting rid of the old one I cannot see any wireless connections. I am using an intel pro wireless card ipw3945. I guess there is a problem with the driver... Here is the code: # iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. wmaster0 no wireless extensions. eth1 IEEE 802.11abg ESSID:"" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=0 dBm Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr=2352 B Encryption key:off Power Management:off Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0 Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0 # iwlist eth1 scanning eth1 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down # ifconfig eth1 up SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory do I did # dmesg ....

Since I installed 7.10 it was working fine with the intel driver and than 8.04 was using already the linux driver iwl3945 and besides the led everything was fine...
