Description Jerome Quelin 2011-06-11 16:42:11 CEST

my wifi interface keeps going up & down - really annoying.

i'm connecting with lan cable, but even like that the problem is disturbing: interface going up & down will update the routes, and even remove the default route using eth0 (cable).

forgot to add: dkms-r8192se-0019.1207.2010-2.mga1 doesn't compile anymore with 3.0 kernel (only tried with 3.0.0-desktop-0.rc7.2.1.mga2)
