Maybe we can capture how does it works with EC register like we support Ideapad S205 in acer-wmi driver. Add a machine to blacklist is a last resort, I don't want to accept it before we try.

Then we can check the rfkill status change. And, Thinkpad E520 have AMW0 method and I thought acer-wmi query wrong EC register address so your acer-wireless was always soft-blocked. Does it possible kindly help me to find out which register on E520 is mapping to wireless status? Please reference to Carlos's acer_ec.pl tool: http://code.google.com/p/aceracpi/wiki/EmbeddedController Simple use: watch -n 1 perl acer_ec.pl regs Then press your wireless Fn key to monitor which register changed when you press Fn key: e.g. the register at row B0 and column 0A is register 0xBA (0x is used to indicate this is a hexadecimal number). There maybe have other EC register changing when you press key, please do a couple of times and make sure you find out the right one. If we are lucky, we can find out one EC register mapping to your wireless state.

Thinking twice, seems to do this in kernel is not a good idea because if acer-wmi is necessary in one model of ideapads then we need to re-compile kernel for testing. I think it will be better to do this in udev if possible. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread
