smolt profile of the machine: http://www.smolts.org/client/show/pub_c7e40328-c264-4299-8077-1b46ddb74283 perhaps there is a kernel level problem around this. I have tried to enable/disable the device with rfkill and there is some proble, it blobls the incorrect interface: [pasqual@yaddith ~]$ rfkill list 0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no 1: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no [pasqual@yaddith ~]$ rfkill block 0 [pasqual@yaddith ~]$ rfkill list 0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no 1: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes [pasqual@yaddith ~]$ in dmesg are appering kernel crashes: [25897.819635] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [25897.819669] WARNING: at net/wireless/core.c:633 wdev_cleanup_work+0x52/0xbd [cfg80211]() [25897.819675] Hardware name: EASYNOTE TN65 [25897.819680] Modules linked in: fuse sunrpc cpufreq_ondemand acpi_cpufreq freq_table mperf ip6t_REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv6 ip6table_filter ip6_tables ipv6 uinput arc4 ecb snd_hda_codec_atihdmi snd_hda_codec_realtek snd_hda_intel iwlagn snd_hda_codec snd_hwdep snd_seq snd_seq_device iwlcore mac80211 snd_pcm cfg80211 snd_timer uvcvideo snd acer_wmi rfkill videodev v4l1_compat r8169 iTCO_wdt soundcore snd_page_alloc serio_raw v4l2_compat_ioctl32 mii iTCO_vendor_support i2c_i801 wmi joydev microcode usb_storage video output radeon ttm drm_kms_helper drm i2c_algo_bit i2c_core [last unloaded: scsi_wait_scan] [25897.819787] Pid: 735, comm: cfg80211 Not tainted 2.6.35.6-48.fc14.x86_64 #1 [25897.819792] Call Trace: [25897.819808] [<ffffffff8104d7c1>] warn_slowpath_common+0x85/0x9d [25897.819820] [<ffffffff8104d7f3>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x1c [25897.819836] [<ffffffffa01ee4c7>] wdev_cleanup_work+0x52/0xbd [cfg80211] [25897.819847] [<ffffffff81062571>] worker_thread+0x1c5/0x251 [25897.819863] [<ffffffffa01ee475>] ? wdev_cleanup_work+0x0/0xbd [cfg80211] [25897.819873] [<ffffffff810663c3>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x39 [25897.819885] [<ffffffff8146912f>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x17/0x19 [25897.819893] [<ffffffff810623ac>] ? worker_thread+0x0/0x251 [25897.819901] [<ffffffff81065f29>] kthread+0x7f/0x87 [25897.819911] [<ffffffff8100aae4>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [25897.819919] [<ffffffff81065eaa>] ? kthread+0x0/0x87 [25897.819927] [<ffffffff8100aae0>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x0/0x10 [25897.819933] ---[ end trace f327e896a848008a ]--- I have uploaded a kerneloops report problem can be relat with bug 593566. in it the card giving problems is of the same model and the kernel crash is similar (In reply to comment #1) > [pasqual@yaddith ~]$ rfkill list > 0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN > Soft blocked: yes > Hard blocked: no > 1: phy0: Wireless LAN > Soft blocked: no > Hard blocked: no > [pasqual@yaddith ~]$ rfkill block 0 > [pasqual@yaddith ~]$ rfkill list > 0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN > Soft blocked: yes > Hard blocked: no > 1: phy0: Wireless LAN > Soft blocked: no > Hard blocked: yes > [pasqual@yaddith ~]$ > I would say the actual issue here is the ACER platform driver that blocks the device. Try blacklist acer-wmi driver. More info here: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16570 correct!! the problem was that, as soon as the module is unloaded all works perfectly thanks!!

Description of problem: I used the networkmanager applet to enable/disable wifi. afeter upgrading the swicth to do it in the networkmanager applet id not working anymore. I have rechecked all the configuration and I don't see anything incorrect I have checked that the wifi card is working doing: ifconfig wlan0 up (to enable the card) iwlist wlan0 scan (to search networks, it found networks) I have taken a look with the cli version and this are the results: [root@xxxx etc]# nmcli -p nm ====================================================================================== NetworkManager status ====================================================================================== RUNNING STATE WIFI-HARDWARE WIFI WWAN-HARDWARE WWAN -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- running connected enabled disabled enabled enabled [root@xxxx etc]# if I try do enable it there is no change: [root@xxxx etc]# nmcli -p nm wifi on;nmcli -p nm wifi ================ WiFi enabled ================ WIFI ---------------- disabled [root@xxxx etc]# nm-tool says that the wifi device is unavaliable: [root@xxxx ~]$ nm-tool NetworkManager Tool State: connected - Device: eth0 [System eth0] -------------------------------------------------- Type: Wired Driver: r8169 State: connected Default: yes ................................. - Device: wlan0 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Type: 802.11 WiFi Driver: iwlagn State: unavailable Default: no HW Address: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx Capabilities: Wireless Properties WEP Encryption: yes WPA Encryption: yes WPA2 Encryption: yes Wireless Access Points [root@xxxx ~]$ Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-vpnc-0.8.1-1.fc14.x86_64 NetworkManager-pptp-0.8.1-1.fc14.x86_64 NetworkManager-glib-0.8.1-10.git20100831.fc14.x86_64 NetworkManager-0.8.1-10.git20100831.fc14.x86_64 NetworkManager-gnome-0.8.1-10.git20100831.fc14.x86_64 NetworkManager-openconnect-0.8.1-1.fc14.x86_64 NetworkManager-openvpn-0.8.1-1.fc14.x86_64 How reproducible: using the enable wireless switch of the networmanager applet or the nmcli command Steps to Reproduce: 1. open a shell and check that the card works doing a ifconfig wlan0 up;iwlist wlan0 scan 2.use nm-tool to see the status of the card 3.try to change the status of the card with a nmcli -p nm wifi on and verift with a nmcli -p nm or with nm-tool that the card remains unavaliable Actual results: wireless connectivity doesn't work with networkmanager Expected results: the wifi card enabled and using network manager to connect to a network Additional info: card is a intel 5100, was working perfectly in fedora 13 [root@xxxx etc]# lspci | grep -i wifi 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation WiFi Link 5100 [root@xxxx etc]#
