Comment(by fhn):
I observed the same problem on my machine.
While reading through the source and the docs i found two things:
1.
In via_lvds.c in ViaLVDSDFPPower(...): the mask for turning the DFP pads
off should be 0xF0, not 0x0F in my understanding.
Maybe someone with more experience in graphic drivers should have a look
at this.
2.
I don't understand why we change the pad control bits at all since the
pads are switched on/off according to the PMS state by the hardware.
So i disabled the execution of ViaLVDSDFPPower(...) in ViaLVDSPower(...)
and the problem with the wireless card are gone.
Of course this is only a workaround, not a solution.
I attached openchrome_741_hp_2133.patch, which contains both changes.
