Since upgrading to kernel 2.6.23.14-115.fc8, my Intel iwl4965 wireless
card refuses to connect. It seems to think my hardware kill switch is
enabled, which is not true. The hardware radio switch is most certainly
on. Output from dmesg is at the end of this message.
Laptop is an HP/Compaq 8510w with 4GB RAM and running F8 (64-bit).
No problem here on a Dell D830 with iwl4965 wireless and the same memory and OS configuration.
Here's the relevant output from dmesg:
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:10:00.0[A] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17
iwl4965: Radio disabled by HW RF Kill switch
Maybe there were some changes to the way the kill switch status is determined?
ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:10:00.0 disabled
irq 17: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
Call Trace:
<IRQ> [<ffffffff8106aa87>] __report_bad_irq+0x30/0x72
[<ffffffff8106acd8>] note_interrupt+0x20f/0x253
No idea if this "hurts", but it looks like a problem with your laptop/mainboard/BIOS.
