The patch is supposed to supress the acer-wireless rfkill interface. does not seem to work.
Several things to check: 1) Please try the dkms (http://people.canonical.com/~ikepanhc/lp/826784-6/) it contains the same patch. Please apt-get install dkms and linux-headers first. After reboot, check `modinfo acer-wmi` to see the dkms ko is used. 2) run `sudo fwts wmi` and post the result (also good to attach acpidump.log generated by `sudo fwts --acpidump`) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/888219 Title: [ThinkPad E420] Wifi is always soft blocked To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/888219/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
