Kubuntu Dapper Problems on Dell Inspiron 8600
All in all I really like dapper, if it just weren't for a few minor (or major...) issues:
Major: 1. The networking: Firstly it only works over a network cable, and that only when I do a "dhclient eth0" after booting. The wireless is totally screwed unfortunately. It actually showed me the networks and everything but it would fail when trying to connect (Sorry, I can't reproduce error right at the moment, but it was something with names not being resolved). So I tried to fix it with removing the old ipw2100 and ieee80211, that worked. But when wanting to install the new ieee80211 it failed:
So now the wireless is totally screwed up... Can anyone help me?Code:root@solanki:/home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12# make Checking in /lib/modules/2.6.15-15-386 for ieee80211 components... make -C /lib/modules/2.6.15-15-386/build M=/home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12 MODVERDIR=/home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12 modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15-15-386' CC [M] /home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12/ieee80211_module.o /home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12/ieee80211_module.c: In Funktion »ieee80211_network_reset«: /home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12/ieee80211_module.c:90: Fehler: »struct ieee80211_network« hat kein Element namens »ibss_dfs« /home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12/ieee80211_module.c:91: Fehler: »struct ieee80211_network« hat kein Element namens »ibss_dfs« /home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12/ieee80211_module.c:92: Fehler: »struct ieee80211_network« hat kein Element namens »ibss_dfs« /home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12/ieee80211_module.c: In Funktion »ieee80211_networks_free«: /home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12/ieee80211_module.c:104: Fehler: »struct ieee80211_network« hat kein Element namens »ibss_dfs« /home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12/ieee80211_module.c:105: Fehler: »struct ieee80211_network« hat kein Element namens »ibss_dfs« make[2]: *** [/home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12/ieee80211_module.o] Fehler 1 make[1]: *** [_module_/home/hibatsu/ieee80211-1.1.12] Fehler 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15-15-386' make: *** [modules] Fehler 2
Minor: 2. The touchpad. It is terribly slow and can't be adjusted in the control panel (for anything more complicated I'm too dumb as it seems). And I can't use the pad itself to click anymore. Buttons of the touchpad work fine.
Edit: here the xorg touchpad conf:
Minor: 3. Just seems to be me, but certain applications take ages or get hung up slightly, but still work. Especially kdesu and mounting devices graphicly seems terribly slow (mounting via console works fine).Code:Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad" Driver "synaptics" Option "SendCoreEvents" "true" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Protocol" "auto-dev" Option "HorizScrollDelta" "0" EndSection
Oh, almost forgot. I'm using a kubuntu flight 3 cd installation upgraded to the newest packages. So thanks for reading this patientienly
I hope you can help me.
