Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.20-6-generic

It appears that the problem of Bug #62685 persists in kernel 2.6.20-6.

Install detects my orinoco card flawlessly; DHCP autoconfiguration succeeds.

On first boot into newly-installed system, prism2_cs and prism2 are loaded along with orinoco, orinoco_cs, hostap_cs, and hostap.

Additionally, orinoco_cs gives this warning unless hostap and hostap_cs are blacklisted.

" orinoco_cs: GetNextTuple(): No matching CIS configuration. Maybe you need the ignore_cis_vcc=1 parameter "

Blacklisting prism2 and prism2_cs (as well as hostap and hostap_cs) forces orinoco_cs and orinoco to load properly. iwconfig will succeed, but dhclient will time out.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description didn't include enough information.

Please include the following additional information, if you have not already done so (please 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" and attach the resulting file "dmesg.log" to this bug report.
3. Please run the command "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 here: <http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelProblems> Thanks!

Can you please post a "dmesg" so we can see which module is loaded first?
