Hi Vaclav, Could you try this just-merged patch and see if it fix your problem? http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=461e74377cfcfc2c0d6bbdfa8fc5fbc21b052c2a On 03/14/2012 11:01 AM, Vaclav Mocek wrote: > Hi all, > > I am an unhappy owner of Lenovo Ideapad S205 and the drivers in the current development kernel (2f1c2b8) soft-blocks its Wi-Fi. S205 loads two kernel modules - ideapad-laptop.c and acer-wmi.c. The rfkill is controlled by acer-wmi.c and there is already a support for S205: > > { > .callback = dmi_matched, > .ident = "Lenovo Ideapad S205", > .matches = { > DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "LENOVO"), > DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, "10382LG"), > }, > .driver_data = &quirk_lenovo_ideapad_s205, > }, > > Unfortunately, my netbook has a different DMI_PRODUCT_NAME - "Brazos" instead of "10382LG" and there are at least eighteen possibilities [1]. I spent some time Googling, comparing Smolt profiles, reading S205 Hardware Maintenance Manual [2] and analysing the BIOS updates. It seems, that all S205 are based on AMD platform called "Inagua" (E300, E350, E450), use two types of Wi-Fi cards (RaLink RT3090 and AR9285), various combination of SO DIMMs (2 x 1GB, 1 x 2GB, 2 x 2GB), different sizes of hardrives and different keyboard layouts; so overall there are pretty much the same. > > There is a rare netbook called Lenovo Ideapad S205s ("s" at the end), but this one is based on Intel's processors [3]. > > My proposal is very simple: > > { > .callback = dmi_matched, > .ident = "Lenovo Ideapad S205", > .matches = { > DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "LENOVO"), > - DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, "10382LG"), > + DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_VERSION, "Ideapad S205"), > }, > .driver_data = &quirk_lenovo_ideapad_s205, > }, > > It works. We are not able to test all product names and if the checking of DMI_PRODUCT_NAME is really required, it should be done in an additional step. The current situation is pretty bad - problems with UEFI booting (the only possibility)[4], impossibility to switch the power off, failing brightness control - and without a functional network connection for a start, it is better to throw it out of the window. > > [1] http://smolt.fedoraproject.org/reports/view_profiles?profile=Ideapad+S205&search=Submit+Query > [2] http://www.manualowl.com/m/Lenovo/IdeaPad-S205/Manual/192357 > [3] http://www.manualowl.com/m/Lenovo/IdeaPad-S205s/Manual/227621 > [4] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F16_bugs#UEFI_install_to_Lenovo_Ideapad_S205_fails_to_boot > > > Best Regards > > Vaclav Mocek > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe platform-driver-x86" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe platform-driver-x86" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
