Package: acpi-support Version: 0.109-1 Followup-For: Bug #482349
Hello there, a follow up on my problems on the ASUS V2S. Today I have bit more time to try to chase the problem, so I reinstall acpi-support (isn't debian great? :)) and playied with it. At boot time, after the gdm comes up, the wireless goes off, and I find this in the log May 22 14:15:39 obi NetworkManager: <info> Wireless now enabled by radio killswitch May 22 14:15:42 obi acpid: client connected from 3645[0:0] May 22 14:15:45 obi NetworkManager: <info> Wireless now disabled by radio kills witch May 22 14:15:45 obi NetworkManager: <info> Deactivating device wlan0. so it's an interaction with NetworkManager (notice I don't have any problem without acpi-support, that's why I submitted the bug here). Note #2 the kill switch (a mechanical switch that turns off both bluetooth and wireless) is never touched, and it's not the problem here. At this time the wlan led is off, but bluetooth is on. After that, if I do echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/wlan the led for wireless comes on, *and* the wireless become functional: May 22 14:17:40 obi NetworkManager: <info> Wireless now enabled by radio killswitch and more log till it connects. Pressing Fn+F2 (which should cycle to turn off wlan, bluetooth in all posible combination) turn off both wlan and bluetooth and pressing it multiple time have no consequences (the led and the services are effectively off). Doing echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/bluetooth brings bluetooth back up, but doing echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/wlan brings the wlan led up, but not the wireless itself. And from now on wireless is off (I haven't found yet a way to re-enable it without rebooting). Doing cat /sys/module/iwl4965/drivers/pci\:iwl4965/0000\:05\:00.0/rf_kill brings back 2 and I cannot make it 0 anylonger (that is the wireless believes to have the HW switch on, which is not true). This is the extent of my experiments: the old version of acpi-support worked (or at least I didn't notice any problem with it) but this one brings the dead on boot problem (which it looks like I can overcome) and the everything dead after Fn+F2 which is not fixable. thanks graziano -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages acpi-support depends on: ii acpi-support-base 0.109-1 scripts for handling base ACPI eve ii acpid 1.0.6-8 Utilities for using ACPI power man ii dmidecode 2.9-1 Dump Desktop Management Interface ii finger 0.17-12 user information lookup program ii hdparm 8.6-1 tune hard disk parameters for high ii laptop-detect 0.13.6 attempt to detect a laptop ii libc6 2.7-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-12 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip hi nvclock 0.8b2-1 Allows you to overclock your nVidi ii powermgmt-base 1.30 Common utils and configs for power ii vbetool 1.0-3 run real-mode video BIOS code to a ii x11-xserver-utils 7.3+2 X server utilities Versions of packages acpi-support recommends: ii radeontool 1.5-5 utility to control ATI Radeon back -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
