When I upgraded to Hardy 8.04, my wireless connection was broken.
Then I noticed in my GRUB list that there were older versions(-17, -16, -14) of the kernal.
I booted on the oldest kernal(-14), and voila, the wireless works.
Is this something I can/should report as a bug?

nope, this happens with kernel upgrades. the wireless modules is integrated into the kernel...
Too much Ubuntu
What wireless card do you have? Intel?
Stuff like this should not break with new kernels.Originally Posted by shifty_powers

It's a BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI.

Did you have to do anything special before to get it working? If you did you might just have to redo those steps while running the new kernel.

Nothing special. Even tried to log in with newer kernel(2.6.22-17) after getting it to work with 2.6.22-14. Did not work.
