Comment 7 for bug 66481

I'm running Kubuntu Edgy on a Thinkpad T40. As above, Network Manager reports abnormally low signal strength, and drops the connection at odd intervals. It seems to happen more on some APs than others (possibly depending on signal strength).

Are there any straighforward workarounds that I can consider for now, besides recompiling with Robert Love's madwifi patch? And are there any plans to fix this in Feisty Fawn? Cross fingers... :)
