https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=357514 Summary: YOU kernel update to 2.6.22.16-0.1-default breaks Wireless, ath_pci & ath_hal .ko conflict Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: drankinatty@suddenlinkmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- The latest online update to 2.6.22.16-0.1-default breaks the madwifi driver because the driver kernel modules ath_pci and ath_hal are downloaded as part of the update but are NOT installed and CANNOT be installed with yast because of conflicts. You cannot even manually install the kernel modules through Yast software management. 01:14 rankin-p35a~> cat linux/yast/wifi_conflicts.txt #### YaST2 conflicts list - generated 2008-01-31 01:09:17 #### This would invalidate atom:kernel-default-2.6.22.16-0.1.i586. atom:kernel-default-2.6.22.16-0.1.i586 has unfulfilled requirements === atom:kernel-default-2.6.22.16-0.1.i586 === kernel-default-2.6.22.16-0.1.i586 provides kernel-default == 2.6.22.16-0.1, but is scheduled to be uninstalled. kernel-default-2.6.22.16-0.1.i586[update] provides kernel-default == 2.6.22.16-0.1, but another version of that package is already installed.

And..., of course Yast deleted the working kernel, and my working kernel modules, from my system, so there is no possibility of going back! Let me know if I can send any other logs or do any more tests to help get this fixed. Millions of other atheros wifi users are going to be real surprised when they do their next online update. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
