Out of interest is a fix going to be applied for non-updated BIOS models, or possibly a recommendation added to the release notes to upgrade to BIOS A03 (technically the best outcome - updated BIOS's are better than non-updated ones). Undoubtedly other Vostro 1520's are going to suffer this proble

easy work around for this bug, is just to "rmmod dell-laptop" and add it to /etc/modprobe.d/dell-laptop.conf blacklist dell-laptop - then everything works like a charm, once the dell firmware updates are available for karmic, this shouldnt be a big drama. -- Karmic BETA: Intel PRO/Wireless 530

I think this might be a dell-laptop regression, well, where it relates to rfkill not registering properly. I'm wondering if a bios update will fix it. (i think there was a ubuntu specific patch for the dell laptops - not sure?) in any case, i think it's tied into the rfkill detecting the wireless
