Re: Wifi switch not working, linux on IdeaPad S205

Hi Florian,

Sorry its being awhile. Thanks for your reply, the notify looks fine but after
reading the DSDT I find no hint how to fix it. :(

It looks like we need acer_wmi to unseal the wifi switch. I am thinking of
two solutions. The first one is to have a module parameter to avoid reading
switch status. The second one is to find out how to unseal the switch function
with wmi (maybe a worse idea).

First thing I need to ask is there any side effect to load acer-wmi on your
ideapad?
