[Bug 578909] Re: acer_wmi blocks wlan rfkill status to disabled on Acer Aspire 4820TG
Tommaso R. Donnarumma, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily kernel folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12-rc2 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

[Bug 578909] Re: acer_wmi blocks wlan rfkill status to disabled on Acer Aspire 4820TG
Same here with Acer Aspire 7552G. Wireless is not working with NetworkManager unless acer_wmi is removed (eg. rmmod acer_wmi). With acer_wmi loaded, I get sudo rfkill list 0: hci0: Bluetooth Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no 2: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no 3: acer-bluetooth: Bluetooth Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no 4: brcmwl-0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no and when acer_wmi is removed, I get sudo rfkill list 0: hci0: Bluetooth Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no 4: brcmwl-0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no So it seems like there are two drivers handling the same device?

It looks like a patch that fixes this issue is already in the latest lucid kernel, can you please upgrade your kernel and report if this problem is actually fixed? *Acer* dmi modalias wildcard causes the driver to load on systems that are unsupported, causing the network manager to report that it is disabled, coz sysfs rfkill entry is always disabled. upstream patch commit a74dd5fdabcd34c93e17e9c7024eeb503c92b048 acer-wmi: Blacklist Acer Aspire One supposed to fix this issue, and is already in the lucid kernel. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Manoj Iyer (manjo) -- acer_wmi blocks wlan rfkill status to disabled on Acer Aspire 4820TG https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578909 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Tommaso, If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.
