Bug#482337: linux-image-2.6.24-1-amd64: rfkill switch doesn't work with iwl4965 driver



ok, I've found the problem... it seems to be the acpid daemon.
I've found a workaround to use the card, which is:

1) stop the acpid
2) turn on the wireless card with keyboard shortcut provided by my laptop (fn+F2)
3) ifconfig wlan0 up

And now, all starts working!!!
Obviously, if I don't stop the acpid, it doesn't work (watching the wifi LED, when I press fn+F2 with acpid started, it turns on and immediately returns off, but without kernel messages!).
Is it an ACPI bug? Or a configuration one?
I've previously tried to disable ACPI at kernel boot time, but without no success.
Thank you
