https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=469020 Summary: Need a YaST user interface for tuning the wireless LED functionality. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bob_l_lewis@yahoo.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008121300 SUSE/3.0.5-2.5 Firefox/3.0.5 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
