I don't think this is a network manager issue.
** Summary changed:
- cannot enable wireless in network manager.
+ iwlagn 5300: Wireless can't be activated after disabling kill switch
** Description changed:
- I'm running 2.6.28-4-generic with an intel 5300 AGN wireless card that
- works perfectly out of the box with intrepid. The iwlagn module is
- loaded and iwconfig sees an interface that supports wireless, but the
- device is unenableable in network manager.
+ UPDATE: Seems similar to bug 193970 except the workaround does not work, and
chipset, driver, and distribution are all different.
