I still have two (and a half) F8T3 issues that I consider blocking for me,
that I haven't really seen any else comment on or complaints about.
BTW. My hardware is a Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop with
Intel 3945 wireless and Intel video.
1/ I can no longer run the display in its native 1680x1050 mode.
In T1, it just worked (without needing the 915resolution kludge)
In T3, when I run system-config-display...
a) if I select Video card->i810, it doesn't stick and reverts
back to 'unknown'.
b) I don't have the 1680x1050 resolution option on the 'settings'
pane (It only goes up to 1280x1024) despite the fact that
the 'hardware' pane->Monitor lists it as LCD 1620x1050.
(Disclaimer: I haven't tried 915resolution again, but I didn't need it in F8T1.)
2/ I can run the Ethernet, provided I don't run NetworkManager AND Intel wireless doesn't work.
(These issues may or may not be related...)
a) I want to use the 3945 wireless... I start NetworkManager/
NetworkManagerDispatcher/KNetworkManager, but /var/log/messages says:
Oct 12 09:29:45 fulkol kernel: iwl3945: Radio Frequency Kill Switch is On:
Oct 12 09:29:45 fulkol kernel: Kill switch must be turned off for wireless networking to work.
And nothing I've tried to-date can get the wireless going again!
b) When I run NetworkManager/NetworkManagerDispatcher/KNetworkManager then
not only does KNetworkManager say 'No network device found', but
the eth0 actually stops working. I have to kill off *NetworkManager*,
and dhclient, and 'ifup eth0' manually to get it working again.
Any comments/suggestions/status updates?
TIA
Fulko
