I'd tried the above script(s) on my Dell Latitude D630, with an iwl3945, running Intrepid x86_64 to no avail. However, once I started poking around at the different trigger files under /sys/class/leds/iwl-phy0\:* I did find that the following worked for me: #!/bin/sh if [ $IFACE = wlan0 ];

I agree that this change should be the default on Ubuntu. As someone who uses multiple platforms this is quite irritating, and I'm glad to have at least found a solution I can use on my own thanks to this Launchpad entry. For what it's worth, this preference is set to true in both Windows and

Michah, Thank you very much for that informative reply -- that clarifies the Ubuntu uname situation immensely. I do wonder why RHEL/CentOS (and possibly other distros) behave differently, but this isn't an appropriate discussion venue for that. I would question why Ubuntu doesn't follow suit,

I also saw similar behavior installing both Feisty and Edgy from the alternate installation CDs on an x86_64 box. I guess this means it's an expected behavior, but I'm not sure why. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? -- [feisty] Installing from alternate install CD leaves cdrom source in
