[Bug 398473] New: iwl3945 kill-switch broken ...
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=398473 User mmeeks@novell.com added comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=398473#c390822 Summary: iwl3945 kill-switch broken ... Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Factory Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: mmeeks@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- I have a: 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02) in a T60p. It seems that somewhere between nm-applet and the hardware the kill-switch information gets lost. I'll blame the kernel to start with ;-) I have an apparently working wireless network connection: with local wireless networks detected & all is well. I turn off the kill switch: Jun 9 12:40:09 t60p kernel: Kill switch must be turned off for wireless networking to work. Jun 9 12:40:09 t60p kernel: usb 5-1: USB disconnect, address 2 all seems good :-) nm-applet says "Wireless is disabled", of course there is some more unhappy looking sysloggage: Jun 9 12:40:12 t60p kernel: wlan0: Initial auth_alg=0 Jun 9 12:40:12 t60p kernel: wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:0f:3d:47:be:8b Jun 9 12:40:12 t60p kernel: iwl3945: WARNING: Requesting MAC access during RFKILL wakes up NIC Jun 9 12:40:12 t60p kernel: iwl3945: MAC is in deep sleep! Now I turn the kill switch off: I get a certain amount of syslog blurb about the bluetooth usb device which is re-enabled nicely; but (unfortunately) my iwl3945 appears not to want to come back at all: Jun 9 12:41:49 t60p kernel: usb 5-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4 .. but nothing about my wireless card. And (naturally) nm-applet still says "Wireless disabled". So - I get upset, and do: modprobe -r iwl3945 modprobe iwl3945 and bingo - network manager detects the change, local networks - and wireless networking is nominally back :-) I attach the various logs; I'm using: $ rpm -q --changelog kernel-default | head * Wed May 28 2008 teheo@suse.de - patches.drivers/libata-acpi-fix-hotplug: libata: Handle bay devices in dock stations (bnc#390822 bnc#395082). -- 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.

P.S. I'm not closing the bug as I don't really understand the closing policy. If someone is using the "pae" kernel and would like to update the kernel modules without recompiling the kernel, you can write me ad I'll send the binary files. -- 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.

It's the iwl3945 driver that did not implement killswitch handling correctly and Helmut wrote a patch to implement that: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-testing.git;a=co... It's committed to the main kernel tree by now.

But if wireless is disabled (RF Kill Switch is on) at boot, I can't enable it anymore. Pressing the RF switch it does nothing, it prints only these two lines at every second keypressing: Jan 27 21:26:09 lpt kernel: iwl3945: Radio Frequency Kill Switch is On: Jan 27 21:26:09 lpt kernel: Kill switch must be turned off for wireless networking to work.
