https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=653508 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=653508#c0 Summary: WLAN connection drops regularly with Intel N 6300 (rev 35) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: timshel(a)rocketmail.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.9.2.11) Gecko/20101012 Firefox/3.6.11 My WLAN connection drops regularly with Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 (rev 35). This even happens with distribution and the latest kernel 2.6.36. It is possible to reduce the frequency by using ping but it doesn't fix the problem. Often only removing the iwlagn module and adding it again fixes the problem. With 2.6.36 in general but also in openSUSE 11.4 it is even worse and ping doesn't help at all. It seems to be a firmware problem since the latest one http://intellinuxwireless.org/iwlwifi/downloads/iwlwifi-6000-ucode-9.221.4.… fixes the problem for me. Atm openSUSE 11.4 has the same 6000. firmware as 11.3 Since the api is compatible it should even be easily possible to fix the bug in 11.3 too through updating the firmware. According to similar bug reports (http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2214) it doesn't happen all the time with this card and every router but it is known and like I mentioned fixed at least in my case with the latest firmware. dmesg output: [ 144.276155] iwlagn 0000:02:00.0: Received BA when not expected [ 144.311555] iwlagn 0000:02:00.0: Received BA when not expected [ 144.427298] iwlagn 0000:02:00.0: Received BA when not expected [ 144.444577] iwlagn 0000:02:00.0: low ack count detected, restart firmware [ 144.444582] iwlagn 0000:02:00.0: On demand firmware reload [ 144.534753] iwlagn 0000:02:00.0: Stopping AGG while state not ON or starting [ 144.534759] iwlagn 0000:02:00.0: queue number out of range: 0, must be 10 to 19 [ 169.235024] iwlagn 0000:02:00.0: Aggregation not enabled for tid 0 because load = 0 lspci output: 02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 (rev 35) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Get a laptop with Intel N 6300 WLAN card (for example Thinkpad X201) 2.Use the 2.6.36 Kernel because the frequency of connection dropping is much higher with it 3.Use the Internet or ping to check when it fails Actual Results: After some time the connection drops and you can't access the Internet or router anymore Expected Results: No connection problems at all. -- 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.

Luckily, the homepage[0] provides a patch for kernels 2.6.32--34 that seem to work with Ubuntu[2] and is supposed to be included in Fedora 12. However, it only works partially for my Qualcomm Gobi 2000 and M7: * I have to add an include to qcserial.c for kzalloc (slab.h) * patched qcserial driver successfully creates the ttyUSB0 device while the unpatched M7 kernel does not * but gobi_loader 0.5 still hangs IMHO these patches were committed to head on May 20th [4][5][6][7] but I am not a kernel hacker.

The educational repro was enabled, but there was no switching of the system packages. I guess the problem is the version number of the bootsplash(gfxboot). It is higher in the educational repro as in the standard openSUSE repro. A screenshot will be added. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: A not automatic switching to the educational bootsplash. -- 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.

[Bug 448322] rpmlint does not propagate missing dependencies for perl modules
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 12 Aug '11

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448322 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448322#c6 --- Comment #6 from Dirk Mueller <dmueller(a)suse.com> 2011-08-13 00:27:22 CEST --- I think those dependencies are usually needed during runtime, but not during Makefile.PL time. so it is okay that it prints out a "warning" when a particular module is not found, knowing that it will be required at runtime, but not at buildtime. grepping for the warning can give a useful hint if the package that provides it is not part of any of the Requires: (or their expansion). writing that as a post-build-check is however challenging. Note that it is somewhat okay that you can silence the check by adding the buildrequires (but not the requires) as in some cases this is also printed about modules that are needed for the testsuite run only, but not for the resulting package itself. -- 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.
