I have an Acer 9920 with an 4965 chipset. This machine has a kill switch which is a toggle and it defaults to ON (killed) always. I have the same problem: after booting the killswitch is always ON. Toggling it in 8.04 would enable the wireless properly. In 8.10 nothing happens. No state change is visible *at all* in dmesg. Unloading and reloading iwlagn causes wireless to become active.
