[Bug 491580] Re: On the laptop PackardBell MT85 is not working Wireless-LED(acpi-support-0.129, mayby other)

[Steve Langasek]

I'm sorry that this bug has gone without a response for so long.  I have
to say that this is the wrong place to make this change; LEDs should be
handled atomically in the kernel as part of the wlan driver, which is
the norm, not via a post-hoc update from acpi-support.. the latter
leaves too many ways for this to get out of sync with the actual kernel
state.

So I'm closing this bug as invalid.  If the driver for your hardware
still does not update the LED state automatically, please file a bug
against the 'linux' kernel package.

** Changed in: acpi-support (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
