This is a bug in either the kernel, or in acpi-support if it's an issue of the keypress not being handled correctly. It's not a bug in wireless-tools, which has nothing to do with the kill switch. Reassigning.
Can the users seeing this please test with a more recent Ubuntu release as well? ** Changed in: acpi-support (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: wireless-tools => acpi-support -- Acer laptop & ipw2200: Recent upgrade breaks radio kill-switch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145290 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
