manually disabling the killswitch with `sudo rfkill unblock wifi` leads to the device being unblocked, but it is softblocked again instantly thereafter by radio killswitch. The wifi Fn-Key is not recognized and therefore triggers no action.
However, with an infinite loop that constantly unblocks the device, I achieved some sort of (messy) workaround, that gave me a (very unstable) wireless connection, so I am able to post this comment: sudo `while true; do echo 0 > /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill1/soft; done` -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773152 Title: Not working wifi on Ubuntu 11.04 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
