Bug Description
With kernel 2.6.24-21, wireless does not start on boot. The light does turn on, but somewhere in the boot process the kill switch is activated. This is on a Lenovo IdeaPad Y510 with a standard Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG card with the iwl3945 driver.
There is a wireless switch on the front of the laptop. The switch is set to on, but the wireless is off. Turning the switch off and then back on brings wireless back up.
This was the same on 2.6.24-20, but 2.6.24-19 works fine.
