    Lost wlan

    Just upgraded to the Jackalope version (Good to see local wildlife get a mention! ) and rebooted to find no wlan capability. Using the Synaptic Package Manager I see it is still installed, but it is not working and the launcher does not see it. I looked in the etc/.../70-persistent-net.rules and got this result:

    # This file was automatically generated by the /lib/udev/write_net_rules
    # program run by the persistent-net-generator.rules rules file.
    #
    # You can modify it, as long as you keep each rule on a single line.

    # PCI device 0x14e4:0x1713 (tg3)
    SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:16:d4:de:dc:b0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"

    # PCI device 0x8086:0x4229 (iwlagn)
    SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:1d:e0:b7:37:1d", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="wlan*", NAME="wlan0"

    This is on a 64-bit intel Sys76 Pangolin

    Any clues?

    Thx!

    You have an Intel AGN adapter which is detected and the module loaded. All you are lacking is software to configure it. network-manager-kde often fails. Your best bet is to install wicd and use it to configure your wireless and wired networks.
