I wish it was that simple :-( I already tried it, but it does not help... I get no reaction what so ever from pressing it... The laptop is an Acer 5720G if that makes any difference... Could it be that rfkill has been broken for my laptop ? And why should I need to press rfkill now, when I didn't before ? Has some kernel defaults changed since 2.6.30 series ? -- Thomas
