Package: eeepc-acpi-scripts
Version: 1.0.2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Sometimes - when you hit Fn+F2 to switch the wireless on - the
led blinks for a moment and then goes back to off.
I solved the problem adding a "sleep 1" after the modprobe command
in the /etc/acpi/actions/wireless.sh script:

    ...
    modprobe ath_pci
    sleep 1
    if ! ifconfig ath0 up; then exec $0 off; fi
    ...

A more elegant solution will be a loop while ifconfig fails, with
a longer timeout.
