I'm having the same exact problem on a Thinkpad X60 tablet: the Network Manager shows me no wireless networks and says the wireless is disabled, even though I can scan for networks using iwconfig from the console. All kinds of modprobing and rmmod-ing hasn't helped anything, and I'm not even using an Atheros wireless card. This particular Thinkpad has an Intel wireless card, using the iwl3945 module. It does, however, have an RF kill switch, and the Bluetooth and WiFi are both completely dead as a result of this bug.

There are clones of the AOA150 also affected by this bug. I have confirmed it kills wifi access using both packard bell and gateway AOA150 bioses. Gateway's AOA150 has subvendor ID 1025 subsystem ID 015B and Vendor string "Gateway", and Packard Bell's SVID/SSID is 1631/0193 with vendor string "Packard Bell". The bioses for all these systems are interchangable and a bunch of people with earlier model Acer AOA150's are using the other ones in order to have more backlight brightness levels. It's not that big of a deal because the module does not automatically load on these bioses but it is still affected by the bug if manually loaded for some reason.

@Andy Then perhaps the following might be better to just blacklist acer-wmi completely for the Aspire One (I've given this a cursory test on my Aspire 5020, so it at least doesn't break anything). (I've left your cleanup changes out for now, as they should probably go into a separate patch). @richard mullens Thanks. Although, given how crazy the DMI naming for the Aspire One's is (compared to every other Acer laptop, which is at least reasonably sane in this respect), it's probably better to adopt a wait-and-see on those models. ** Attachment added: "Blacklist Acer Aspire One completely in acer-wmi" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24586272/acer-wmi-blacklist-acer-aspire -- acer_wmi in Jaunty on Aspire One exposes non-functional (always disabled) rfkill device https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/319825 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Carlos -- i am happy that the patch achieves what we wanted here. Getting the Aspire Ones we had seen in the wild working for wireless. However, if the real issue is that the whole module is useless on that hardware then it would make more sense for the patch to just blacklist the whole module. On expanding the DMI decode match, my personal preference is to be conservative; to only match those we know about. I am loath to blacklist something for a later model and find it does work there and that we are overruling it. I do however note you are the maintainer so I am happy to go whichever way you deem correct.

[Bug 319825] Re: acer_wmi in Jaunty on Aspire One exposes non-functional (always disabled) rfkill device
@Andy I had been meaning to do something like this patch for a while, though I wasn't aware that the Aspire One's broken/ lack of WMI support broke things so badly for NetworkManager. A few things though: 1. You may want to update the patch details though - the bug here is that the Aspire One's ACPI-WMI interface just provides empty, useless methods that do nothing - calling into them doesn't return any result, but there's no way yet to distinguish it from a working Acer ACPI-WMI interface without blacklisting, since it advertises all the GUIDs that acer-wmi can drive. 2. Consider changing the DMI matching string - DMI can match on partial strings, so matching on 'AOA1' should be enough to catch all the Aspire One models with one DMI entry (in case there are more than just the 110 and 150 out there). Other than that, if this patch is ready to go (and it looks good to me so far), I can add my sign-off to it and we can get it merged upstream. -- acer_wmi in Jaunty on Aspire One exposes non-functional (always disabled) rfkill device https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/319825 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 319825] Re: acer_wmi in Jaunty on Aspire One exposes non-functional (always disabled) rfkill device
After a number of rounds of debugging with Stefan (thanks for your patience) I think I have a workable patch for this issue. Basically it appears that the Aspire One has hardware rfkill support and layering the software rfkill support over this simply disables the radio permenantly. The patch adds a new quirk type for having hardware rfkill and enabled that for the Aspire One. Could those of you with this hardware test the Jaunty kernels below and report back. If you have swrfkill enabled it should be announced in the dmesg. Please test with the acer-wmi module loaded (which it should automatically), please indicate whether the wireless works at all in this state and whether the rfkill switch works too.

I'm not runnin Ubuntu at the moment however I saw a similar bug occur with ArchLinux on an Acer Aspire One AOA150.

One more thing, can you please run lshal -m and toggle your killswitch while the acer_wmi module is still loaded. Post the output back to this bug report. Then repeat after you have unloaded that module when your wireless is working.

Heh, forgot this was an apport bug, sorry. You don't need to attach those first 5 again. daemon.log and lsmod would still be nice.

Huh? Why does apport think my kernel isn't a genuine Ubuntu package?
