I tried 'rfkill list'. For the official kernel, it shows that the the
device is hard blocked, and 'rfkill unblock 0' can only switch the
soft block part. I guess Fn + F5 used to achieve this, but not any
more. However, other Fn combinations like brightness adjustment still
work.

For linux-image-3.1.0-loongson-2f from www.anheng.com.cn, even the
device doesn't show up. I guess the module it not loaded or even not
compiled.

What could be the problem?

Strangely, now X server just quit after launch. I'm attaching both
/var/log/Xorg.0.log and /etc/X11/xorg.conf as attachment, please check
what could be wrong. Thanks.
