Hi,
a word of warning for those of you using Ubuntu on a
NetBook: the new release 10.04, due this friday, has
a bug related to WLAN and WPA/WPA2, for RT2860 chips
as used in many Netbooks (such as the EEE 1000H).
While it can connect to unencrypted or WEP "encrypted"
WLANs, it is unable to connect to WPA/WPA2 APs.
It is fixed in a newer kernel release, but probably
won't be available for the launch of the new version.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/496093?comments=all
If you don't need such access, fine, but if you do,
and want to upgrade, you'll need to use a different
kernel (to be installed via other type of connectivity)
to have things working. The alternative is to delay the
upgrade until the fix is in the standard repositories.
Ah, the joys of beta-testing...
Eric
P.S. Launch party friday evening at the hackerspace:

Hallo David,
vielen Dank fuer deine muehe und die schnelle Antwort.
Ich habe heute mit Gemalto gesprochen - Kundenspezifisch wuerde die
Entwicklung ca. 15k Euro kosten. Da sind sie in dem einem Jahr
schonmal mit dem Preis drastisch nach unten gegangen. :) 58k Euro - da
kann man jetzt nicht wirklich viel zu sagen ausser das einem die spuke
wegbleibt.
Wenn wir eine Karte haben moechten die Plattform uebergreifend
funktioniert und nicht dem Europaeischen Sicherheitsstandard
entsprechend muss - also FIPS ausreichend ist, dann sollten wir es mit
der DOT NET von Gemalto probieren - da ist der SOURCE dann auch frei
verfügbar.
Also versuchen wir das mal !
Nochmals vielen Dank!
Grus

Hey
You may remember my Mini-Howto for using the luxtrust stick on a 32bit
Gentoo System (available here: http://c3l.lu/wiki/index.php/Luxtrust)
Now this guy would like to run it on his 64bit system. I'm certain he
won't be able to get the sourcecode, as it is proprietary; but I'm
clueless about using 32bit libraries on 64bit systems.
Can someone enlighten me on this or give me a direction where to look?
Thanks,
D.
