Hi Colin, [Matthew, everybody from the platform list, please see http://mid.gmane.org/ip6j66$o5f$1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx for the full email thread] Sorry, took me a while to get back to your email. > wifi works fine generally, but after cycling RFKILL I have to reload the > various modules before it works again. > [root@jimmy ~]# rmmod dell_laptop I'm pretty sure this one's at fault, see below. > Turn back on: > > iwlagn 0000:0b:00.0: RF_KILL bit toggled to enable radio. See, iwlwifi just reports this from the hw. > usb 4-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4 And your BT USB device shows up on the bus too. But then: > iwlagn 0000:0b:00.0: RF_KILL bit toggled to disable radio. > usb 4-2: USB disconnect, address 4 iwlwifi reports that it was killed, and your BT USB device disappears. > I've been looking through the various commits that could come into play > (although I am sure there are others): All the commits you listed are related to iwlwifi only. However, we can see that both wifi and BT are killed again. Therefore, iwlwifi can't be at fault (its rfkill line is basically a GPIO input, it can't cause BT to drop from the bus). The consequence is that the fault must be with dell_laptop, the BIOS is the only thing that can be causing both to be rf-killed. (I'd also suspect rfkill, but it has no changes since 2.6.37) johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
