SRU Justification (for Natty): Impact: turning off wi-fi using the hotkey permenantly disables wireless networking. The only way to turn it on is reboot.
Fix: Revert the previous patch to toggle the killswitch via the Dell-specified SMI command without the concern if it is hardware-controlled. I sent the revert patch to upstream already, but it is not yet merged. I issued the SRU for Natty in case of the concern of blocking the certification. Testcase: Confirmed to fix the issue on Dell Vostro 1014 and Latitude 2120 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775281 Title: [Dell Latitude 2120] Turning off wi-fi with hotkey seems to permenantly disable wi-fi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/775281/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
