Description Kristoffer Grundström 2010-09-16 01:41:06 UTC 
I think you'd rather go to my reported bug on https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=61004 to read about the problem.
Comment 1 Kristoffer Grundström 2010-09-16 02:15:40 UTC 
Is http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/compat-wireless-2.6.git;a=summary the right place to check for changes for this issue?
Comment 2 Kristoffer Grundström 2010-09-16 03:46:49 UTC 
This issue is resolved by installing rfkill (It wasn't installed by default) & setting up the wireless connection. Closing as resolved.
