Picking up from where we left off in bug #53310 "Wireless (ipw2200) does
not work after waking up from sleep(without manually switching on).".
As your comments in bug #53310 points out, the acerhk module's
"autowlan=1" is required.
Where I need further clarification is with:
1. When using acerhk autowlan=1 does this cause the radio frequency kill
switch to be switched off (enabling the radio) when the PC resumes, or
does it just enable the ability to press the physical switch to re-
enable the radio?
If the latter then I think the solution is to add suspend/resume support
to the acerhk module. suspend would do nothing but resume would simulate
the kill switch set to 'off' if the switch-state was 'off' before
suspend.
What might make this more complicated is if the switch is a momentary
push-to-make type rather than a multi-position slider or locking push-
to-make switch - can you tell me what kind of switch it is?
