reenabling wireless does not work

[supercompman]

On my Asus Eee PC 900HA using Ubuntu 10.04 Beta 1, as long as wireless is enabled on boot the wireless works fine, but if the wireless is disabled then reenabled, the network manager insists that the wireless is "not ready" and never shows a list of available wireless networks. The only way I've found to get the wireless to work again is to enable the wireless then reboot.

This bug is still not corrected in 10.04 RC.

This is a driver issue with the one used for wifi on the EeePC, reassigning to the 'linux' package.

Hi supercompman,

If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.
