WLAN fail after update

al2 · 12-26-2007, 06:13 PM

Hi!
After the latest update of Ubuntu 7.04, my WLAN card (IntelPro 2200) won´t work. It makes no difference if I boot with the previous kernel either. dmesg gives a message that says that the card can´t receive some power signal and that five attempts have been made and the card therefore isn´t initialized. In WIndows the card still functions properly. Any help would be appreciated.

Windows can do strange things to network cards. These "things" survive a reboot, but not a total power-off, and unplug from the mains for 20sec (Or battery - out if it's a portable).
You can also try booting to windows, then going to the device manager and then "properties" for your network card.
In the "Advanced Options" tab select:
Wake-on-lan after shutdown = Enable
Shutdown windows, reboot to linux. Any better?

Edit: Oops - just noticed that this is a Wlan card. Not sure if the "properties, advanced options" business will apply, but that, and a full powerdown before booting to linux are worth a try, especially as you say going back to the previous kernel has not helped.
The exact error from /var/log/messages or dmesg (look at both) would also be useful if the above does not fix things for you.

Thanks for the suggestion. That didn't work though.
The output from dmesg:

I discovered another problem that seems to have occurred at the same time. The USB mouse is malfunctioning too.

tredegar · 12-28-2007, 11:18 AM

Hmmmm

Some things to think about:
Something is not happy about your interrupts:

Code:

Yenta: check your BIOS CardBus, BIOS IRQ or ACPI settings.
[   86.965691] irq 11: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)

Things like this can cause other things to fail.

I went here http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/ and did some reading (Mostly the INSTALL document)
The ipw2200 driver needs a firmware file, do you have this?

Also:

Quote:

You will also need to have sysfs mounted. This facility is used to query
and control the operation of the ipw2200 driver (see the README.ipw2200,
found in the ipw2200 source directory).

I suggest you take a look at your iterrupt allocation, maybe "try booting with the "irqpoll" option", and read the INSTALL doc on sourceforge. You may find some hints there. Sorry I cannot be of more help.

Edit: Just read

Quote:

The USB mouse is malfunctioning too.

This looks more like interrupts. Start your hunt there, at least until "Yenta" is happy in your boot log. /Edit

Thanks for your help. I "googled" around a bit and after changing the kernel options to

Code:

noapic nolapic noapci noirqpoll noirqdebug nosmp

everything works fine. I still don´t know what caused the problems but I can probably live with that.
