Gilles,
Which kernel version and Atheros driver (i.e. madwifi or ath5k)?
In 2.6.28 (and perhaps 2.6.27 too?) both wifi off and wifi on generate
the same event, which you can test by running acpi_listen and then press
the key twice, e.g.
$ acpi_listen
hotkey ATKD 00000010 00000007
hotkey ATKD 00000010 00000008
In /etc/acpi/actions/hotkey.sh in version 1.0.11, it only responds to
the old ACPI events which are distinct for the on and off states:
# Fn+F2 -- toggle wireless
00000010)
/etc/acpi/actions/wireless.sh on
show_wireless
;;
00000011)
/etc/acpi/actions/wireless.sh off
show_wireless
;;
I believe this works only with Linux kernel 2.6.26 and earlier.
The latest version of eeepc-acpi-scripts in git handles both kernel
versions by handling 00000010 as a toggle but 00000011 as 'off'.
Now, if you use ath5k instead of madwifi, you'll also need more fixes
to support it that are currently only in the git version. We are
testing this now and expect to release 1.0.12 in a week.
