[openFATE 305784] Wireless light blinks all the time
Feature added by: Robert Lewis (rll123) Feature #305784, revision 1, last change by Title: Wireless light blinks all the time openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Robert Lewis (rll123) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: The LED blinking is very distracting and needs to be controlable. The LED blinks when traffic goes through the wireless card. However you can configure the LED behavior in /sys/class/net/wlanX/device/leds. For example something like echo none > /sys/class/net/wlanX/device/leds/*TX/trigger echo none > /sys/class/net/wlanX/device/leds/*RX/trigger echo none > /sys/class/net/wlanX/device/leds/*assoc/trigger should deactivate the blinking while traffic is received or transmitted. Just play with the LED triggers to get the desired behavior. This is a work around for a few people not afraid to muck with such things but a GUI user interface to turn this on/off will be needed for most people. I think we need YaST options in the wireless network area to tune the LED behavior. > Agreed. A graphical user interface would be very nice for tuning the LED > behavior. I suggest to open a feature request at [2] for that. > >Thanks, > Helmut -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/305784
