Subject: iwlagn - compat-wireless (5GHz) and fglrx modules
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2009 07:31:35 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1248784295.7020.2.camel@ghost-linux> (raw)
Hello,
I am experiencing a very odd issue between the ilagn and fglrx modules.
I am writing here since the ubuntu devs are not supporting running
either modules (fglrx since I am not using their packages, or iwlagn
since I am using the compat-wireless frmo linux-wireless.org).
The results are very reproducible - here is what is happening:
I can successfully use any version of compat-wireless with the OSS ATI
video modules. I can successfully run the closed source fglrx ATI
module with the Ubuntu provided (albeit ancient) iwlagn and related
modules. Once I try to run the closed fglrx module alongside the
compat-wireless packages from linux-wireless, ONLY the 5GHz channels
(both wide and narrow) fail. Association works, but debug outputs over
and over:
[ 470.128306] iwlagn 0000:04:00.0: ERROR: No TX rate available.
over and over.... Switching to a 2.4 channel works like a champ, but
the laptop in general is unstable and sometimes becomes unusable, and
others kard kernel locks (blinking caps lock)..
I have tried All Ubuntu kernel PPA kernels as well as latest git and
released compat-wireless relases with same effect, as well as all ATI
catalyst drivers from 9.4 - 9.7.

Easiest way to remedy is to simply remove the compat-wireless "extra"
modules and reload the originals.
Thanks, and I can provide any info needed to try to get somewhere with
this.
