https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=405868 Summary: [iwl3945] Can't activate intel 3945AGB with softkey; only over yast or by reloading the module Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: IA64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: marko.obert@googlemail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Customer Hi Novell-Team, I have a BenQ R55 G21 notebook with an intel 3945 AGB wireless network card on OpenSuse 11 (Gnome). Thats how it was before with the ipw3945 module: Press the wireless softkey an wait a few seconds, then I saw all available networks listed in the gnome-network-manager. Thats how it's right now: Press the bottom an nothing happens ..... Two ways to get it work: Over Yast2: Yast2 -> Network preferences -> PRO/Wireless 3945AGB Network Connection -> Edit -> Continue -> Continue -> Close Then the available networks get listed, but I have to do it after each reboot. Reload module: 1.) Press the softkey 2.) modprobe -r iwl3945 3.) modprobe iwl3945 If it doesn't work, start with 2.) again. Conclusion: Thats not how it should be. It would be greate, if you could solve that problem.

...

After I ran "ifconfig wlan0 up" I've got this dmesg output: .. iwl3945: Radio disabled by HW RF Kill switch

The wireless card is disabled by a hardware kill switch. Please enable the wireless card using the hardware switch and _afterwards_ run "iwconfig wlan0 up". The driver has a bug (bnc#393441) and will not recognize the hardware switch turning on the wireless card. "iwconfig wlan0 up" works around this bug. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The demsg output: atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0xe1 on isa0060/serio0). atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e061 <keycode>' to make it known. atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0xe1 on isa0060/serio0). atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e061 <keycode>' to make it known. means, that I pressed the softkey. If I would run "iwconfig wlan0 up" without pressing the softkey, it would say that there is no wlan0 device, which isn't surprising.
