Re: [Bug 430809] Re: [Dell Latitude D430, iwl3945] Wireless can't be activated after disabling kill switch
Have you tried to upgrade your bios? Latest version, for your notebook, is A04, as you can see on Dell support site, while in your log i see that you have A00 version. For my laptop, Vostro 1320, bios upgrade worked fine.

Daniel: The return of the query of the HW switch status isn't returning anything different in any of these scenarios: 0010 0011 1101 Bit 16 indicates the status of the HW switch. It's looking like there is 1 of two things going on here: 1) A bios bug w/ your laptop. Not much we can do from dell-laptop's perspective 2) A return flag is failing that we're not checking for.

Re: [Bug 430809] Re: [Dell Latitude D430, iwl3945] Wireless can't be activated after disabling kill switch
Hello, I have been having problems with my wifi-card and rfkill, I opened bug 435141. Maybe, this bug is related so I have tried the patch, I have a dell e4300 with an interl 53000 AGN. I attach the results of testing the patch with hardware switch on and off. In both cases the result is the same: If hardware switch on: rfkill list 1: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no 2: hci0: Bluetooth Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no If hardware switch off: rfkill list 1: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: yes My wifi is always disabled by software, I have to enable it manually. However, with a fresh install of Karmic Alpha 6 it worked perfectly. I would appreciate some feedback if it would be possible, I don't want to introduce noise in a bug not related with me. Maybe is with something related with rfkill but not rfkill itself. Let me know if you need more info.

Daniel: The actual switching is happening in the BIOS when you press the key. The BIOS spits out the keycode and dell-laptop says OK sure, lets change our internal status now So that would explain how the information works reverted. Dell-laptop also has support to send the toggle itself, but it needs to know the starting status to accurately do that.
