  1: Wifi's stopped working.  Yes, it did initially. 

...


 In addition to the software switch via rfkill, there's a hardware switch
 to turn wireless off. It's tiny, and its position at the right-side
 front can sometimes lead to inadvertently switching it. On my
 T410(currently broken, but that's another story), 100% of error 132
 are caused by activating the switch when jamming it into my laptop backpack.

Color me seriously sheepish, but that seems to have been the immediate
problem, though I'd swear I'd had the problem even after toggling the
WiFi power switch previously.  Strange.

I'll see if it stays working.


Thanks.

 622308 (which has been closed); bugs 626337 and 627249 are similar.
 
 (I'm running an Asus laptop with an Intel 965GM chipset.)

Thanks, Bill.

Any chance that the video codec and GLX issues I'm having are also
related?

I can play Flash videos but not full-screen.  Attempting to use any
video codec I've tried so far in mplayer/xine hangs the video session
entirely.

Will try the .39 upgrade.

I'm seeing the same issue with a 2.6.39 kernel.  I'll try a 3.0 rc as
well, but so far no joy.
