Hi all, In a freshly installed OpenSuSE 13.2x64, I get Network Manager with its wireless icon disabled and not responsive. Curiously the network inspector button (from yast when switching from NM to Wicked) it finds my ESSID, however just as NM it does not enable wireless. Notes of the box: new Lenovo G40 fresh installed opensuse 13.2 with KDE All defaults available updates of suse, bios etc. On windows 8.1 partition, wireless works fine My attempts to solve it included:. updating all using default repos as well as packman's repos;.
tried with disabled secure boot;. login as root;. enabled legacy OS at BIOS;. checking afer resuming (in some posts they recomment to check it due to ACPI issues);. moving network to the top of the booting order at BIOS (also this was posted as a solution for some users with similar issues);. used rfkill unblock all, but wlan and bluetooth are still hardware blocked.
Tried with a Live CD of OpenSuSE Rescue 13.2, with the same result (no wifi nor bluetooth). Note:Left mouse of the touchpad does not work neither but that is another issue for later. Here some outputs. Code: lenovo:/home/user # rfkill list all 0: ideapadwlan: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: yes 1: ideapadbluetooth: Bluetooth Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: yes 2: hci0: Bluetooth Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no 3: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: noOK so both wlan and bluetooth are hard blocked. Fn7 key of the notebook, has an airplane logo on it. I assume it is to enable and disable wireless devices.
There is no other button related to enable or disable wireless by hardware. So, here we go after pressing it once. Thanks Gryxx, I am not sure how this happened or what made the trick, but after updating again, NM has access to the wifi-board. I was ready to try by blacklisting the module as you said, but it is working now. The mousepad is another thing. So weird that only one of the buttons is not working.
I never saw this. I recall mouse devices being fully recognized or nothing at all but never in parts. Saint google shows that it seems to be a common case among some Lenovo notebooks but no solution so far except connecting an external mouse.
I am surviving with that. The case between G40 and its Wifi, can be close despite I am not sure what solved it. Thanks again.
