[Bug 875659] Re: RT3090 wireless conflict with acer_wmi
I also have an older S205 with an E-350. With kernel 3.0, I just had do rmmod acer_wmi after system startup (and it really needed to load: after hibernation I had to modprobe acer_wmi and then rmmod to get wifi to work again). Yesterday I upgraded to 12.04 and no combination of modprobing/rmmoding acer_wmi or ideapad-laptop got me wireless. My S205 has an Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 (I threw the crappy ralink away), and even with an external wifi stick I can't get access (seems that if one device is blocked, nm-applet treats it as if ALL are blocked). In addition, my EFI setup is kind of manual, so the workaround from comment #80 doesn't even apply to me. So to recap: the upgrade to 12.04 left my old 3.0 kernel also installed. If I boot with that, I'm golden. If I boot with 3.2, nothing I tried could get me wireless. Should I upload my acpidump, dmesg, etc too? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/875659 Title: RT3090 wireless conflict with acer_wmi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/875659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 875659] Re: RT3090 wireless conflict with acer_wmi
At least for the IdeaPad S205 model 1038 there is a quite weird workaround: After installation there is a mysterious "ubuntu" entry in the boot order that must not be at the top. So go to your "BIOS" with F2 and change the boot order so the hardisk comes before "ubuntu" entry. Seems like a buggy EFI/BIOS implementation.

Just as Doki already reported it works on a S205 modell 1038 with the precise beta2 amd64 live image, but after the installation and no updates applied the wireless is always hard blocked via rfkill.

For more explanation. In rfkill status, the hard blocked means "read- only radio block that cannot be overriden by software". Usually it shall be the status of physical wifi switch. Soft blocked means "writable radio block that is set by the system software", which we can use `rfkill block ` or `rfkill unblock ` to control it.

[Bug 875659] Re: RT3090 wireless conflict with acer_wmi
Hi Hansen, Please help on testing two things. 1. With last kernel (the one in 875659-3), wireless blocked because wifi driver detect hardware wifi switch is off. I know actually it is on. Could you try to turn the switch off and on once and see if the wireless is unblocked. 2. Could you try the kernel deb at http://people.canonical.com/~ikepanhc/lp/875659-4/ please? This patched acer-wmi will not test the ec register and not to register acer-wireless rfkill. Please attach output of `rfkill list`, this will tells us if the wrong status hard block of phy0 is caused by we read/write something on ec register. Thanks a lot. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/875659 Title: RT3090 wireless conflict with acer_wmi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/875659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

wireless speed is another issue, rfkill only tells NetworkManager wireless is power on or not, in most case it will not affect speed. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => 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/875659 Title: RT3090 wireless conflict with acer_wmi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/875659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you Ike Panhc. I have a "clean" installed Oneiric installation just for testing this, so please do not hesitate to ask me for further testing. What about the serious problem with the networks speed, it seems to be a problem for all of people using RT3090 and makes the wifi close to useless?

This is my last approach for acer-wmi rfkill related issue. The root cause of this issue is we can not update the soft block status of acer- wireless rfkill. This patched acer-wmi will try to change the rfkill status and see if the status is *real*changed. If not, driver will not register acer- wireless rfkill. So, please test the kernel deb at http://people.canonical.com/~ikepanhc/lp/875659-3/ And not to blacklist acer-wmi or set any kernel parameter on acer-wmi.

The patches don't work for me either.

Running the standard workaround on the usual kernel (rfkill unblock wifi ; rfkill unblock all ; modprobe -r acer_wmi) also didn't work and the only way I could get wireless working again was to force-purge the patched packages and force-reinstall the generic kernel/headers etc. and reboot.

Confirming that the workaround right at the top of the bug report works for me: Add the following to /etc/rc.local rfkill unblock wifi rfkill unblock all modprobe -r acer-wmi However, as the OP points out, the network speed is horrible. It will stay at max. throughput for a while but will then drop down to less than 1Mbps after a time. This appears random - sometimes it will stay at max for anything up to ~20-30minutes but at others it happens almost straight after boot... I have found this post on the rt2x00 team's forum: http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=6186 ...which confirms the behaviour with the "rt2500pci" driver - it obviously affects rt2800pci too... For me (also using a Lenovo S205 which has the RT3090 card), Markus' Natty DMKS driver for rt3090sta *doesn't* work. It builds, installs and appears to be servicing the WLAN card, but I cannot scan for any networks (either with Network Manager or iwlist via CLI) nor add any manually. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/875659 Title: RT3090 wireless conflict with acer_wmi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/875659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 875659] Re: RT3090 wireless conflict with acer_wmi
I installed this older driver: https://launchpad.net/~markus- tisoft/+archive/rt3090/+files/rt3090-dkms_2.3.1.3-0ubuntu0~ppa1_all.deb Blacklisted "acer_wmi" in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf Added "rt3090sta" til /etc/modules This seems to work, and at full network speed. Are the conclusion that the RT3090 driver in 11.10 does not work, and there are a conflict with acer_wmi ?? ** Package changed: network-manager (Ubuntu) => ubuntu -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/875659 Title: RT3090 wireless conflict with acer_wmi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/875659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Made ndiswrapper work with: rfkill unblock wifi rfkill unblock all modprobe -r acer-wmi But network speed is again very low, less than 70-80kb/sec. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/875659 Title: RT3090 wireless conflict with acer_wmi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/875659/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
