One annoying thing about my laptop is that it has a bluetooth module built in, but it's powered off by default and the only way to activate it is through the fn+F8 ACPI command. Are there any commands to expand the ACPI command api? The bluetooth is the most important to me, but I'd also like to get dis/enable touchpad (fn+F9) and the zoom keys like fn+1 and fn+2 and fn+space. -ben P.S. This is my first mailing list post, so please forgive me if I'm not suppost to bring this up here. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

However, with both cards, it is unable to read the EEPROM (it states this in dmesg). For the Netgear FA511 cards, this results in an interface that does not send/receive packets (not even in tcpdump on the local machine), and the interface has the well-known "tulip driver can't read the EEPROM" MAC address of 00:4C:69:6E:75:79 ("Linux" in Hex). For the D-Link cards, the behavior is not quite the same, but at any rate, it doesn't appear to be able to read the EEPROM either (all 0's MAC address, when I was able to get the interface to come up). The same cards work fine with the same OS (Fedora 10) on other Dell laptops (Latitude D600 and D800s, which have a different CardBus controller). Additionally, the card works fine in the same exact machine if I install the Fedora 11 alpha, or if I boot from an Ubuntu live CD (running a very similarly-versioned kernel). I've tried updating the BIOS and the OS, to no avail. It seems like this is an issue that's already been fixed, but the fix hasn't been backported to Fedora 10 yet. This was submitted to bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=488833 but I have received no response yet. See that site for further debug output, etc. Thanks, -Jeff Weston From Jeffery.Weston at nrl.navy.mil Tue Apr 14 15:45:48 2009 From: Jeffery.Weston at nrl.navy.mil (Jeff Weston) Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2009 11:45:48 -0400 Subject: 2nd mouse on Dells = erratic window manager behavior? Message-ID: <022001c9bd18$14ed4a90$3ec7dfb0$@Weston@nrl.navy.mil> Since about Fedora 8, and definitely in Fedora 9 and 10, there has been a problem with the window manager on Dell Latitude laptops with two mouse inputs (touch pad and joystick-style). Occasionally, it will do very strange things when you use the joystick-style mouse (the touchpad works perfectly though) ... maximize windows while you're moving them, double-click files you're trying to move, leave selections on the desktop that can't be removed via a refresh, and once in a while, it will actually lock X up hard, requiring the old Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. This behavior may be more common when using the joystick Mouse with the touchpad's buttons, but I'm not sure. Sorry if this is a dupe, I didn't know exactly what to search for. And like I said, it's been there a while, though I realize that a laptop with two built-in mouse interfaces is somewhat uncommon... Also submitted as Bugzilla bug #488836, with no acknowledgement in 6 weeks...

Cleaning out the nub mouse usually helps the situation, but I don't believe it to be a software issue as it spans two OSs. -Sean On Tue, Apr 14, 2009 at 11:45 AM, Jeff Weston wrote: > Since about Fedora 8, and definitely in Fedora 9 and 10, there has been a > problem > with the window manager on Dell Latitude laptops with two mouse inputs > (touch > pad and joystick-style).

I just always notice it because I tend to use the "nub" mouse (with the trackpad mouse buttons), while my coworkers tend to favor the trackpad, which works fine (they always have no idea what I'm talking about until I show them). -Jeff > -----Original Message----- > From: Sean Madden [mailto:spmadden at gmail.com] > Sent: Tuesday, April 14, 2009 12:49 PM > To: Jeff Weston > Cc: fedora-laptop-list at redhat.com > Subject: Re: 2nd mouse on Dells = erratic window manager behavior? > > Since you've seen this problem since Fedora 8, I can assume that you've had this laptop for a while. > > I work in IT for a major college, and we see issues like this on a number of laptops with the track > nub mouse, both on Windows XP and Fedora*.

This seems to be working OK now without any mixer tweaking on the F11 Beta Snapshot. Can anyone else confirm? I don't think there was bug report about it. Rui
