Package: eeepc-acpi-scripts
Version: 1.1.0
Severity: important
Tags: patch
After upgrading to 2.6.26-2 from squeeze, I found that my wireless no
longer worked reliably. Wireless would occasionally function at
initial boot, and would not work after Fn+F2.
Following instructions from:
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-eeepc-devel/2008-August/000883.html
I found that the following patch was needed to
/etc/acpi/actions/wireless.sh to fix the problem. I have no idea if
this is the correct or appropriate method to solve this problem,
however it works for me.
