[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1621725] [NEW] iwlegacy/iwl3945 driver flashes LED on traffic by default
Public bug reported: This bug is still present in 16.04. When using the iwlegacy driver, the default behavior is to have the blue LED indicator flash whenever traffic is going over the wireless. This is annoying, as it is in the user's face on most laptops. The workaround is to add something like this to a new file named /etc/modprobe.d/iwled.conf options iwlegacy led_mode=1 I suggest that this mode be the default, and require a configuration change to ENABLE the flashing.

> Regarding the LED blinking when WiFi traffic is occurring, while you may find this annoying, and it could be many others find this also, this being the default action it isn't considered a software bug. A new user is probably not going to take the time to google the problem, find this and related bugs, and create a specific file with specific options in order to make the system usable. Having the light flash in your face is not the default behavior in other OSes. I would consider it a real bug. That said, I get your point. This is also a legacy driver and will probably go away eventually.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 250211] Re: WLAN LED blinks incessantly on iwl3945 | iwl4965 laptop
This ancient bug seems to still affect old laptops when they are resurrected using ubuntu 16.04. Running the iwl3945 wireless driver on this HP laptop will result in the LED blinking on traffic. Adding the module option fixes the problem. I find it hard to believe that isn't the default for all drivers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/250211 Title: WLAN LED blinks incessantly on iwl3945 | iwl4965 laptop Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Lucid: Invalid Bug description: Since upgrading to Intrepid, the WLAN LED of my HP nc6000 blinks all the time instead of simply being on.
