Description Dan Williams 2011-11-01 19:18:46 UTC
The kernel doesn't have rfkill support for this laptop; there's an out-of-kernel module:

http://linuxforums.org.uk/ubuntu/how-to-install-amilo-fsam7440-rf-kill-switchs-driver-in-ubuntu/

which doesn't have any autoload magic and doesn't handle events, but it's a starting point.

PNP IDs are PNP0a03 PNP0b00 PNP0c04 PNP0200 PNP0C02 INT0800 WEC0515 WEC0517 PNP0400 NSC6001 PNP0303 PNP0f13

Comment 3 Josh Boyer 2012-02-20 23:14:07 UTC
There's a better driver for this here:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/80615/focus=2637

however, I don't see that in a tree anywhere at the moment.

Comment 4 Josh Boyer 2012-03-13 13:01:17 UTC
The amilo-rfkill driver has been merged into Linus' tree now.  It should be available in the next rawhide kernel.

Comment 5 Josh Boyer 2012-03-19 18:45:34 UTC
This is in the 3.3 rawhide kernel now.  (It will also be in F17, and F15/F16 shortly)
