Description Pavel 2012-02-20 08:53:06 UTC

Description of problem:
After last updates of kernel and kmod-staging, I lost wi-fi connections from NetworkManager.

yum install kmod-staging throws out this warnings:

and kmod-staging doesn't see any wi-fi networks.

Previous versions of kmod-staging worked normally...

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.2.6-3.fc16.x86_64

Actual results:
I don't see any wi-fi connections in NetworkManager, but see "hidden network" caption.

Expected results:
List of wi-fi networks in NM.

Additional info:
What component I need to install? It is a kernel bug?

Comment 1 Jon Masters 2012-02-23 00:04:14 UTC

This bug was filed against "kmod", a utility for managing drivers. The issue you are reporting appears to be caused because you have installed third party "staging" drivers. The problem is likely to be that you need to update kmod-staging, which is an unrelated third party package.

Comment 2 Pavel 2012-02-26 19:50:32 UTC

I'm sorry, but this is a bug in last kernels (or NetworkManager).
See here: https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2175
What can it be?

Comment 3 Josh Boyer 2012-02-27 14:13:23 UTC

You're on your own on this bug.  Fedora doesn't build the referenced drivers.
