But I'm not having this problem with any 4.10 kernel on two totally different laptops with different wireless makes. And I haven't heard of anyone else having this problem. First step is to see if anyone has filed a bug upstream against the same wireless hardware you have. And then you can track that. If there isn't an upstream bug yet, the unfortunate reality is that you'll have to file one if you want to get it fixed. Upstream is pretty good about responding to regressions like this so long as you narrow it down to a specific kernel version where the regression first happened; and they're even more responsive when you do a bisect to narrow down the commit that's likely to blame (probably because a specific commit puts the regression blame on a specific person, haha). Anyway, somebody has to do it. If no one does it, it likely won't get fixed on its own. Also for Fedora 26, we're on 4.11rc8 so you could just test that and see if the regression is already fixed. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to test-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
