hi, I tried some stuff like "rfkill unblock all", configure some modul options, acpi off, noirq, install compat-wireless rpm and from source etc. (found similar problems on google). WLAN still doesn't work with kernel 3.x.x. Then I tried to install the latest stable kernel from fedora 15 (2.6.40.6-0.fc15.x86_64) and WLAN still doesn't work. Next try.. kernel 2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.x86_64... now it works :) Now I will compare my OS with kernel 3.1.0 and 2.6.38, maybe I'll bring it to work in kernel 3.x. At the moment it seems that the drivers in kernel 3.x.x bring up four devices (rfkill list) and 2.6.38 only two. Maybe someone can give me instructions or a howto for comparing the different configurations? compare lsmod, modprobe config, dmesg, other logs? additional I'll try to install kernel 3.1.1 from kernel.org. I'm inclined to think this is either an error with the ACPI interpreter or with the ACPI BIOS on your box. Just as a first step, please make sure that your BIOS is updated -- looks like the current BIOS for the HP 635 is version F.34. I don't see any obvious wireless problems in your dmesg. Are you able to see a list of APs? Can you ever connect at all? Also, please attach your wpa_supplicant.log. Ok my current BIOS Version is F.24. Updates are only available for Windows. I'm waiting for a reply from HP Support. I've added some additional information in log-info.txt (wpa_supplicant.log, udevmonitor, rfkill etc.). I'm only able to see and connect APs with kernel 2.6 "rfkill unblock all" doesn't have any effect. My current kernels: kernel-2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.x86_64 (wlan works) kernel-3.1.1-1.fc16.x86_64 (no wlan) kernel-3.1.1-2.fc16.x86_64 (no wlan) Created attachment 534571 [details]
Additional Information (udev, rfkill, wpa_supplicant.log, dmesg)
Ok now I got it. BIOS Version F.35 (update with Windows 7 recovery CD). Still the same problem with kernel 3.x :( Can we see a new /var/log/messages taken after the BIOS updates and showing an attempt to enable the wireless device? A new rounds of the files from comment 10 would be good as well...thanks! Ok... after some updates (see yum.log.txt) wlan works. I don't know why. There are no kernel or driver updates. In /var/log/messages are no errors. I'm confused, but happy :) Created attachment 534824 [details]

Created attachment 532748 [details] Messages Description of problem: I've bought a HP 635 (Laptop) with Suse Enterprise Desktop 11 (Linux 2.6.x) out of the box. Hardware works fine. I've installed Fedora 16 and I can't activate my wireless network (Atheros AR9285). If I try to activate it (NetworkManager or the wireless button on the keyboard) i get a acpi error in /var/log/messages (see attached file Nov 10 08:01:01 to Nov 10 08:01:06 ). I've tried Fedora 15 LiveCD (i386 32Bit, Kernel 2.6.x) an everithing works. I can't find a equal solution on google. Some similar problems say's that's a kernel bug. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 16 Kernel an Hardware see attached files. How reproducible: Basic install (Workstation). Additional info: If you need some other informations please post it.
