Bug Description
[Explanation and Workaround]
With ubuntu 10.10 some hardware that was previously driven by the rt2860sta driver is now driven by default by the rt2800pci driver. Sometimes the new rt2800pci does not work as well as the rt2860sta. In that case it is often possible to switch back by blacklisting. See how to switch between the drivers here: https:/
[POSSIBLE DUPLICATES]
This bug might have the same root cause as is detailed in bug #659143.
[Original Report]
Hello,
With the new kernel release available on Ubuntu Maverick (2.6.35-x) I'm not able to be connected to a secured wireless network. I already had this kind of bug on Lucid (bug #496093) but the connexion worked after two or three time and I had the problem only with one router.
Don't hesitate to tell me something to do if it's needed ;)
Thank you!

I forget to say that it worked fine before (<= 2.6.31).
And also I don't know if it's related but now if I shutdown (not reboot) the computer and restart it later, it seems that this wireless card is disabled and I can't enable it with: load_firmware: Error - PBF system register not ready. regbusy_ read: Error - Indirect register access failed: offset=0x00007010, value=0xbdfcfb7b
$ sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
The output says that the device is busy. This is what I've from 'dmesg'
[ 43.762591] phy0 -> rt2800pci_
[ 43.763112] phy0 -> rt2x00pci_
I can't enable it at startup because the related option on the BIOS setup has only two possibilities: "Disabled" and the "same status just before the shutdown".
