Bug Description

I have an Averatec 22000. The built-in wireless has not worked on any version of Ubuntu until Gutsy Tribe 4. In Tribe 4, it would work for a long while, until at some point it would just stop, and the only way to make wireless work again was to hard-reboot (soft-rebooting wouldn't do it).

Wireless works fine in Windows, so it's not my hardware.

In Tribe 5, it doesn't recognize the wireless card at all.

FYI, in various versions of Ubuntu in the past, I have seen it both not recognize the card at all, and also where it recognizes the card, but refuses to connect to any wireless networks, regardless of any WEP/no WEP settings I use.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description does not yet have enough information.

Please include the following additional information, if you have not already done so (pay attention to lspci's additional options), as required by the Ubuntu Kernel Team:
1. Please include the output of the command "uname -a" in your next response. It should be one, long line of text which includes the exact kernel version you're running, as well as the CPU architecture.
2. Please run the command "dmesg > dmesg.log" after a fresh boot and attach the resulting file "dmesg.log" to this bug report.
3. Please run the command "sudo lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.log" and attach the resulting file "lspci-vvnn.log" to this bug report.

For your reference, the full description of procedures for kernel-related bug reports is available at [WWW] http://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies. Thanks in advance!

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Now that the final version of Gutsy Gibbon is available we were wondering if this issue still exists. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

     Just tried it with the latest version of Gutsy. It recognizes the wireless card, but it ust spins and spins when trying to connect to a wireless network. It can detect the local essid's of the networks in range, but it can't actually get a DHCP address from any of them (encrypted or open).
