I wonder if this is some magic being done by our friend the VSA ...


Nope looks to me to be a simple enable pin.  The EC has a singnal
marked WLAN_EN that appears to control the 3.3V to the marvel chip.

Its hooked up to GPIO18 on the EC.  So enable that output and wireless
should come back.

Should linuxbios do this or leave it up to a userspace program?


We could make it a special case in the OLPC mainboard enable code. I think that makes sense.

OTOH I suppose linux or userspace could do it very easily as well. Comments?
