Re: networkmanager can not enable wireless scanning
Hi Larry, >From your information , and I have googled this bug report:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/938630, and I have tried `rmmod acer-wmi`, the nm's "enable wireless" button now is not unchecked again( great !), but nm still cannot scan for wireless ssid. sadly :( Thanks. 2013/9/27 LovelyLich : > 2013/9/27 Larry Finger : >> On 09/26/2013 09:38 PM, LovelyLich wrote: >>> >>> 2013/9/27 Dan Williams : >>>> >>>> On Thu, 2013-09-26 at 15:09 +0800, LovelyLich wrote: >>>>> >>>>> Thanks Larry for your help. >>>>> iwconfig shows a wireless device. >>>>> here is my output : >>>> >>>> >>>> What is the "rfkill list" output if, as root, you run "rfkill unblock >>>> wifi"? >>>> >>>> Dan >>>> >>> Thanks Dan, the output is : >>> [root@localhost]/home/codedancer# rfkill unblock all >>> [root@localhost]/home/codedancer# rfkill list >>> 0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN >>> Soft blocked: yes >>> Hard blocked: no >>> 1: phy0: Wireless LAN >>> Soft blocked: no >>> Hard blocked: no >>> [root@localhost]/home/codedancer# >>> >>> >>> sorry i am not familiar with this aspect, so i can only do what you >>> tell me to do , and can not think more things. >> >> >> Is your computer built by Acer?
