Ok, with only acer-wmi loaded (wifi is connected) i toggled the wifi switch a couple of times. Trying as fast as possible...no problem, system didn't crash. After finally switching to "on" wifi connected again. > It's the same, if you wan to use ideapad-laptop at the same time.

Again, no crash. After switching finally to "on" wifi connected again. I noticed a message from acer-wmi (has nothing to do with the tests above): acer-wmi prints a message to kernel message log about every second: [28907.045046] acer_wmi: acer_rfkill_update state: 1 Is this debugging output? For the final version it should be disabled. regards -- Florian Heyer - heyho@flanto.de
