hi, after fresh install of ubuntu-eee-8.04.1.iso on Asus EEE 1000H i had the same result: system freeze when hitting Fn+F2 (wireless was off and i tried to switch it on).
I logged back into window to see what happens if i switch it on and reboot ubuntu. Surprisingly when i hit Fn+F2 under windows, it also freezes. Restarting under Ubuntu, I replaced the two files that Christopher kindly provided - now I was able to switch the wireless network on/off, however it is not 100% reliable - still occasionally it freezes when i use that key. -- Eee 1000 - Disabling Wireless Crashes System https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261141 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Eee Coders, which is subscribed to Ubuntu Eee.
