dmesg after pci=biosirq
I tried setting pci=biosirq in the grub menu and the only difference I see is that the consoles vanish. I can still log in via ssh though. # rfkill list all 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes |
Created attachment 78811 [details] dmesg The i386 has a Ralink corp. RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI wireless card. However, the installation process seems unable to use it to find any wireless networks, not even open networks. Same goes after booting and trying manually. This is true even with the new kernel: # uname -a Linux easynote 3.6.0-030600rc3-generic #201208221735 SMP Wed Aug 22 21:45:31 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux # rfkill list all 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes What information is needed to make a proper bug report?
