Bug#629825: linux-image-2.6.38-2-amd64: wireless is disabled by hardware switch

2011-06-08 Thread Houmehr Aghabozorgi
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.38-5
Severity: important

I have intel 5300 agn card. this testing install and booting under kernel .32
the wireless card works as expected. Booting under .38 the card is listed as
wireless is  disabled by hardware switch. Debian IRC suggested installing
firmware-iwlwifi from sid, which i tried and it is the same result.

What's the output of rfkill list with both kernels?

Cheers,
