aceracpi - issue #3

Sometimes cat /proc/acpi/acer/wireless gives wrong value


Posted on Jun 4, 2007 by Helpful Bear

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Load acer_acpi 2. Enable wireless (echo "enabled : 1" > /proc/acpi/acer/wireless) 3. Hibernate your computer 4. Wake up your computer 5. Run: cat /proc/acpi/acer/wireless

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? After hibernating power of wireless card is off by default. So using "cat" on "wireless" should give 0. Actually (0.5 version) it gives 1.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? acer_acpi-0.5 Linux acer 2.6.22-rc3-git2-14-default #1 SMP 2007/05/31 19:09:16 UTC i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux openSUSE 10.2

Tested and confirmed on my laptop with hibernate (aka suspend-to-disk). I'll start looking into this.
