Wireless setup trouble 5.1.1 OK in 4.3.1 - What Happened?
Posted: Tue 26 Oct 2010, 03:36
I'm using lupq because I got the Wacom tablet working on my Toshiba 3500 with this distro.
However, as with lupo 5.1.1, my on board wireless doesnt load. If it does, it's sporatic at best - I have got on at times - but next boot? Gotta go through the whole thing again. Last time, even when I load the driver manually, it still doesnt "find" the wifi. I did before and did with 4.3.1!!!
Drove me nuts enough to gen up another HD with 4.3.1 on it (no CD on this machine) and, as I guessed, bada-bing and I'm on! I'm wiring this from the 4.3.1 system now...
So what's been done with 5.1.1 and what looks like the exact same thing, which renders it dysfunctional on my particular machine? Is there something I can edit and change settings to get the behavior back to rock solid 4.3.1?
It'd be nice to have the Wacom and Wireless on the lastest Puppy!
Thanks and Best Regards,
Joe
