Hi Brett, I've been testing on a Lenovo S10-3t, with the 4313 chipset. I've tried 2 other S10-3t units with the same result (making doubly sure the switch was in the on position). I haven't tried another model with the 4313 in it. Is it possible that Larry's experiences with the b43 driver and rfkill are related?
