Public bug reported: Hi, after the upgrade to natty, I am not able to enable/disable wifi on my netbook (Dell Latitude 2100).
Before the upgrade, I used the key combintaion Fn+F6 to enable/disable. Now, when I press the key-combination, I get the following messages in syslog: Wifi enabled, I press Fn+F6: -------------------------------------- May 13 14:37:08 dell-desktop kernel: [16146.995845] kbd_keycode: 6 callbacks suppressed May 13 14:37:08 dell-desktop kernel: [16146.995853] keyboard: can't emulate rawmode for keycode 240 May 13 14:37:08 dell-desktop kernel: [16146.995876] keyboard: can't emulate rawmode for keycode 240 May 13 14:37:08 dell-desktop kernel: [16146.995896] iwlagn 0000:0c:00.0: RF_KILL bit toggled to disable radio.
