this affects me too. I am using ubuntu 11.10 on my dell studio 1558. It keeps saying that device is not ready. The only workaround i can find is to uncheck the enable networking option from its menu and then re- enable it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu

Hm. This looks roughly like what I'm experiencing where if I uncheck wifi in gnome-shell or XFCE4 (haven't tried in Unity yet) it is permanently killed. XFCE4's network tool reports that the rf kill switch has been used (not so, I just used the network gui). Oddly, if I actually toggle the real

Okay, if rfkill unblock removes the soft block then it doesn't seem to qualify as a hard block according to the kernel's definition. So I don't think a bug against linux is needed. Thanks Marc! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to

It's roughly clear what the issue is, so marking this Triaged, I'll try to push out a patch to test a fix for this. Since it can easily be worked around, the priority should be left at Medium. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Triaged -- You received this bug

Mathieu: A similar issue has been reported in bug 826932, except this time the kill switch sets both soft and hard blocks. But as with this one the blocks are removed and wirless still doesn't connect. Would you mind taking a quick look at that one to see whether or not is should be marked as a

The kernel defines a hard block as a read-only radio block that cannot be overriden by software. I suspect that this block can be cleared with rfkill unblock. Jeff, can you check this? ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Assignee: Seth Forshee (sforshee) = Jeff Lane (bladernr) -- You

Hi Seth, Unfortunately, I can not. I'm back in NC now, while the systems are all up in Lexington. I've re-assigned this to Marc Legris, who works out of the Lex office full time. Marc, can you help Seth out with this bug. I saw this issue on all three EeePC netbooks. -- You received this bug
