Hi Martin,
I have been running the kernel 2.6.27-8-generic for a few days now, and
so far my WLAN connection hasn't dropped out, nor has the kernel itself
shown any problems. I have tried this both when the kill switch was off
during startup and also when it was switched too the off state after the
laptop had already been running.
The only thing that doesn't work is the automatic detection of networks
after changing the kill switch. Network manager says something like
"WLAN networks disabled" ("Funknetzwerke sind deaktiviert" in
German...), which is also grayed out, and running "sudo iwlist scan"
results in
lo Interface doesn't support scanning.
eth0 Interface doesn't support scanning.
irda0 Interface doesn't support scanning.
wmaster0 Interface doesn't support scanning.
wlan0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
pan0 Interface doesn't support scanning.
Running
sudo modprobe -r iwl3945
sudo modprobe iwl3945
actually starts a scan and connects me to known WLAN networks.
Thanks for working on this bug, and please tell me if you need further
informations.
Martin
