Public bug reported: The Dell Inspiron 1018 is no longer able to enable wireless. The F2 key does not disable rfkill as it should. I believe this is a regression since 10.04, since there was a patch related to this in that release. I will be installing with 10.04 and will be able to verify that this is in fact a regression shortly.
