Please help me report this bug to the correct project.
Today, my Uncle purchased a new Laptop. It is an ASUS F75A, having the following network card:
lspci | grep -i wireless
02:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
I've installed Ubuntu 13.04 onto this machine, and each time I log in and click on the network-manager indicator, it is in the following state:
1) "Enable Wi-Fi" is NOT check and it is GRAYED OUT.
2) "wi-fi is disabled by hardware switch"
The work around I've discovered is not acceptable, because only resolves the issue for one session:
1) sudo rmmod -f asus_nb_wmi
2) Toggle wi-fi, by holding down the function key and pressing f2 (fn-f2).
Note: if don't do step one, the wi-fi only stays enabled for about 4 seconds and the resorts back to the previous state mentioned above.
The user (my Uncle), must do this each and everytime he logs into his laptop, in order to consume wi-fi.
Note: Before removing Windows 7, Window 7 was able to (appearantly) automatically turn on the hardware switch and connect to the wireless network (recurringly) on each login. However, in Ubuntu, the hardware switch is always OFF after login, and I must rmmod before toggling the hardware switch with fn-f2.
Ideally, I'd like this laptop to function like any other laptop I've installed Ubuntu onto. So, how can I acheive that?
Also, how can I put this issue in front of the eyes that can prevent this issue for others who purchase an ASUS F75A?

description |
Please help me report this bug to the correct project.
Today, my Uncle purchased a new Laptop. It is an ASUS F75A, having the following network card:
lspci | grep -i wireless
02:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
I've installed Ubuntu 13.04 onto this machine, and each time I log in and click on the network-manager indicator, it is in the following state:
1) "Enable Wi-Fi" is NOT check and it is GRAYED OUT.
2) "wi-fi is disabled by hardware switch"
The work around I've discovered is not acceptable, because it only resolves the issue for one session:
1) sudo rmmod -f asus_nb_wmi
2) Toggle wi-fi, by holding down the function key and pressing f2 (fn-f2).
Note: if don't do step one, the wi-fi only stays enabled for about 4 seconds and then resorts back to the previous state mentioned above.
The user (my Uncle), must do this each and everytime he logs into his laptop, in order to consume wi-fi. Also, due to his condition, he's practically incapable of these seemingly simple steps.
Note: Before removing Windows 7, Window 7 was able to (appearantly) automatically turn on the hardware switch and connect to the wireless network (recurringly) on each login. However, in Ubuntu, the hardware switch is always OFF after login, and I must rmmod before toggling the hardware switch with fn-f2.
Ideally, I'd like this laptop to function like any other laptop I've installed Ubuntu onto. So, how can I acheive that?
Also, how can I put this issue in front of the eyes that can prevent this issue for others who purchase an ASUS F75A?

Today, my Uncle purchased a new ASUS F75A laptop, with the following network card:
lspci | grep -i wireless
02:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
I've installed Ubuntu 13.04 onto this machine, and each time I log in and click on the network-manager indicator, it is in the following state:
1) "Enable Wi-Fi" is NOT check and it is GRAYED OUT.
2) "wi-fi is disabled by hardware switch"
WORKAROUND: The following terminal command only resolves the issue for one session:
sudo rmmod -f asus_nb_wmi
Toggle wi-fi, by holding down the function key and pressing f2 (fn-f2).
Note: If one does not do the terminal command above, the wi-fi only stays enabled for about 4 seconds and then resorts back to the previous state mentioned above.
My Uncle must do this each and every time he logs into his laptop, in order to consume wi-fi. Also, due to his condition, he's practically incapable of these seemingly simple steps.
Note: Before removing Windows 7, Window 7 was able to (appearantly) automatically turn on the hardware switch and connect to the wireless network (recurringly) on each login. However, in Ubuntu, the hardware switch is always OFF after login, and I must rmmod before toggling the hardware switch with fn-f2.
