I have re-installed 32-bit and fully updated it. No longer problems with
wireless due to BIOS update.

I have only tested this with Live 32-bit after the BIOS update - there
was success, but not yet with an installed and fully updated 32-bit
system. I am currently using 64-bit Karmic without any problems at any
stage. I will get a chance sometime this coming week to install 32-bit
and report back.

most dell-laptop rfkill bugs should be fixed in latest kernels. do you

Good news ensues. Sorry for the delay in returning to this, got very
busy over the weekend.

I applied the A03 BIOS update and SUCCESS, 32-bit live enabled the
wireless and I made successful connections.

I had trouble upgrading the BIOS  on this model, here's what I didn't
do:

This applies to .exe in Vista.
 
- You need external power plugged in.
- If the executable doesn't work first time try running as administrator

Out of interest is a fix going to be applied for non-updated BIOS
models, or possibly a recommendation added to the release notes to
upgrade to BIOS A03 (technically the best outcome - updated BIOS's are
better than non-updated ones).

Undoubtedly other Vostro 1520's are going to suffer this problem.

easy work around for this bug, is just to rmmod dell-laptop and add it
to /etc/modprobe.d/dell-laptop.conf

blacklist dell-laptop

-

then everything works like a charm, once the dell firmware updates are
available for karmic, this shouldnt be a big drama.

2009-10-10 Thread icesmurf
I think this might be a dell-laptop regression, well, where it relates
to rfkill not registering properly. I'm wondering if a bios update will
fix it. (i think there was a ubuntu specific patch for the dell laptops
- not sure?)

in any case, i think it's tied into the rfkill detecting the wireless as
disabled even though it's not (at least, that looks like it's the
problem i'm having here).

wand detects and operates fine, so i doubt it's a wireless driver
issue, more likely it's a kernel/rkill regression of some sort.

To rlh:
This I've seen before as a fix, and in relation to an Intel 5300 as well but in 
this case it's unrelated as I don't even have pre-configured connection under 
Wireless, thanks for the reply anyway.

To icesmurf:
The good news is there's a BIOS update available to version A03. I had trouble 
applying it under Vista a few weeks ago and didn't care too much for it after 
that but I'll try again. Cheer's.

Cheer Alexander. I'll try some messing with rfkill. I noticed somebody

different and when I used rfkill to bring down certain ifaces it didn't
do anything although I didn't try all.

OK, I'm booted into Live Karmic 64-bit and network-manager works!

I'll try 32-bit again, I'm downloading fresh ISO's of everything (I'm
paranoid) and first trying live and then fresh install and I'll see
whether this is an architecture based issue.

2009-10-08 Thread John Ward
Here's the lie of the land now. So far I have tried 32-bit live and
installed and 64-bit live and installed:

32-bit Live: no wireless
32-bit installed + updated: no wireless
(NOTE: I have done this completely fresh again with new ISO's to eliminate the 
possiblity of a former bad ISO)

64-bit Live: No problems
64-bit installed + updated: No problems

This IS a cross architecture problem.

Also my rfkill is different under 64-bit:

j...@vostro:~$ rfkill list
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no

My 32-bit can be seen in the above posts and the rfkill.txt attachment.

Hope this is helpful.

Just an added note. On my Dell XPS1530 with a intel 3945 wifi card,
Karmic 32 bit with latest upgrades I was finally able to get stable
wifi. I went into network-manager (Right click - Edit connections) and
deleted my hidden wifi connection. Then I clicked on the antenna icon
and my hidden ssid was still there so I clicked on it and a box came up
asking for my WPA password which I entered then clicked connect and it
worked. A stable connection that also works on reboot. The only other
time I used (Edit connectiions) was when I first installed Karmic beta.

I have updated and no luck. Is it a drivers issue bearing in mind wicd
works perfectly?

Here's a series of things that lets me scan for networks.

When I do a sudo iwlist scan - I get the message Network is down.

I then perform sudo ifconfig wlan0 up - it completes successfully.

Doing a sudo iwlist scan now returns networks.

Although network manager still reports Wireless is disabled, I have
done sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart in the past and no change.

Running nm-tool is fruitless too.

In syslog attached there is clearly the killswitch turned on, but he
says that wicd works at same time, so its probably a bug related to
rfkill.

I'm also having a problem with the wifi connection. This is on a Dell 1530 and 
1330 with Intel 3945 internal cards.
What's interesting is that the live beta from 10/3 that I put on a usb stick 
works fine and connects to my wifi network just fine but doing an install from 
bootup (NOT from the desktop) wifi doesn't work. Then I did a apt-get update / 
dist-upgrade. During that upgrade I saw a notice that network-manager couldn't 
find some resources it needed. When the upgrade was done wifi would connect for 
maybe 3 seconds and then disconnect. It would then try to reconnect again but 
wouldn't. So this is where I am now.
