Paul, Here's what I did.
1. Open a terminal session. Home Screen > Accessories > Terminal. 2. Switch to super user. sudo su and enter your password. 3. Backup the eeepc-wireless-toggle.sh and eee-wifi-on-off.sh. cp /etc/acpi/eeepc-wireless-toggle.sh /etc/acpi/eeepc-wireless-toggle.sh.bak cp /etc/acpi/eee-wifi-on-off.sh /etc/acpi/eee-wifi-on-off.sh.bak 4. Download the 2 files Christopher mentioned above. 5. Move and overwrite the files with the downloaded versions. This is an example where you downloaded to you home directory. mv /home/user/eeepc-wireless-toggle.sh /etc/acpi/eeepc-wireless-toggle.sh mv /home/user/acpi/eee-wifi-on-off.sh /etc/acpi/acpi/eee-wifi-on-off.sh 6. Exit terminal and reboot. I found I didn't need to do any editing at all. If you want to edit a file try. sudo gedit /etc/acpi/eeepc-wireless-toggle.sh -- 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.
