<PRE>Hiya,
Since the last little while (I think since kernel 2.6.38) the rfkill
switch on my laptop doesn't work too well.
I can turn the machine on with wireless (+bluetooth) enabled and if I
hit the rfkill switch (Fn+F2 on my machine) both wifi and bt turn off as
they should.
If I turn it back on again however, both of the lights turn on briefly
but then the wifi one goes out and bt follows shortly thereafter. The
only way I can find to get wifi back is to reboot or:
[<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">root at jimmy</A> ~]# rmmod btusb

<press button to enable>
[<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">root at jimmy</A> ~]# modprobe iwlagn
When I disable the radio dmesg says this:

When I enable it again (and it fails) it says this:
iwlagn 0000:0b:00.0: RF_KILL bit toggled to enable radio.

usb 5-2: USB disconnect, address 6
iwlagn 0000:0b:00.0: START_ALIVE timeout after 4000ms.
Note that this is *without* pressing it wtiwce as the log's indicate -
it's almost like the keypress is being detected twice enable/disable. or
somethig (or the iwlagn driver somehow redisabled it after activation?)
After pressing the button a third time (to disable the radio again
(after the failed activation)) all I get is:
keyboard: can't emulate rawmode for keycode 240
keyboard: can't emulate rawmode for keycode 240
So I'm a little stumped.
Anyone else get this problem?
iwlagn : Intel Corporation|PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron]
Network Connection [NETWORK_OTHER] (vendor:8086 device:4229 subv:8086
subd:1101) (rev: 61)
I found this which seems like a likely candidate for a fix...
<A HREF="http://ns.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg64176.html">http://ns.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg64176.html</A>
but it's from February... is it really not in the .38.x kernel yet??
