Hi Joe,

Good point.  Where is it though!   I fixed a similar problem on my daughter's laptop (Acer).  I'd have thought it won't be easy to switch off accidentally though.

Where is your hardware switch?

By the way I used ndiswrapper -l.   It shows the driver alright.

Paul.

Is there a hardware switch for wireless too? (My laptop could use Fn +
F2 as well as a hardware switch)

What you describe sound familiar actually, but would like to clear up
the above thingy first :)

Cheers

Under Gutsy I could toggle that mode using one of the function keys (FN key + F2 key which has wireless symbol on it).  This doesn't work under Hardy.
