[Bug 1022430] Re: [ASUS X55C] Cannot enable wifi again using wireless hotkey
We had the same problem with Asus K550c on 12.04. Creating /etc/modprobe.d/asus.conf with - options asus_nb_wmi wapf=4 - enables WLAN fixes it. Neither this nor blacklisting the module make the fn-f2 combination work. The wifi LED doesn0t light up either. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1022430 Title: [ASUS X55C] Cannot enable wifi again using wireless hotkey To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1022430/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I was having a similar issue, and blacklisting asus-nb-wmi fixed it for me: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1172151 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1022430 Title: [ASUS X55C] Cannot enable wifi again using wireless hotkey To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1022430/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The patch is in 3.5 mainstream kernel commit d2044c5a3aafac552d28c1add16930821c24cbd0 Author: AceLan Kao Date: Wed Jul 4 11:19:08 2012 +0800 asus-nb-wmi: add wapf quirk for ASUS machines The BIOS of these machines will try to enable/disable wifi/bt in their own sqeuence. It won't read the enable/disable parameter in WMI command, but just iterates the wifi/bt's status described below 1st. enable wifi, enable bt 2nd. disable wifi, enable bt 3rd. enable wifi, disable bt 4th. disable wifi, disable bt That will totally mess up the rfkill status, since we will try to read wifi and bt's status and reset it again while booting up. To avoid this, these machines should set the wapf value to 4, that will let software totally control the wifi/bt's status and BIOS will do nothing instead of sending out the 0x88(KEY_RFKILL) event instead of 0x5e(wifi enable), 0x5f(wifi diable), 0x7d(bt enable), and 0x7e(bt disable) through WMI. With this patch[1], it will handle the KEY_RFKILL event correctly and will block/unblock wifi and bt together. 1. https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/21/75 Signed-off-by: AceLan Kao Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Quantal) Status: In Progress => Triaged ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1022430 Title: [ASUS X55C] Cannot enable wifi again using wireless hotkey To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1022430/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1022430] [NEW] [ASUS X55C] Cannot open wifi again using wireless hotkey
Public bug reported: After using wireless hotkey to disable wireless, it cannot be turned on again using wireless hotkey. Steps: 1. Press wireless hotkey to disable wireless 2. Press wireless hotkey to enable wireless - but doesn't work Expected results: Wireless hotkey can reopen the wireless Actual results: The wifi is still be blocked When using Fn + F2 to disable wireless, rfkill shows the wireless network interfaces are soft blocked: 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no 1: asus-wlan: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no And when we press Fn + F2 again, it should show all "no" in rfkill, but it has a "yes" in it: 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes 1: asus-wlan: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no So the wireless is still be blocked. If I remove asus_nb_wmi, the bug cannot be reproduced. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: AceLan Kao (acelankao) Status: In Progress ** Tags: blocks-hwcert-enablement ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => AceLan Kao (acelankao) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1022430 Title: [ASUS X55C] Cannot open wifi again using wireless hotkey To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1022430/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
