What is happening is the /usr/bin/dellWirelessCtl is what is being called and it needs the dcdbas module to be loaded. Since it is not, then the message. Look here for libsmbios-bin-0.13.6-1.fc7: http://linux.dell.com/libsmbios/main/ [bpm]$ rpm -ql libsmbios-bin-0.13.6-1.fc7 /usr/bin/assetTag /usr/bin/dellBiosUpdate /usr/bin/dellLcdBrightness /usr/bin/dellWirelessCtl /usr/bin/getSystemId /usr/bin/propertyTag /usr/bin/serviceTag /usr/bin/tokenCtl /usr/bin/verifySmiPassword /usr/bin/wakeupCtl /usr/share/doc/libsmbios-bin-0.13.6 /usr/share/doc/libsmbios-bin-0.13.6/COPYING-GPL /usr/share/doc/libsmbios-bin-0.13.6/COPYING-OSL /usr/share/doc/libsmbios-bin-0.13.6/README /usr/share/doc/libsmbios-bin-0.13.6/getopts_LICENSE.txt I've added: modprobe dcdbas to /etc/rc.local so it gets loaded at boot. Then the messages not only go away, but toggling the wireless kill switch works. -- Brian Millett - [ Delenn (to Teronn), "A Distant Star"] "Understanding is not required.
