[Bug 557048] [NEW] [Lucid] [EeePC 1005PE] Wi-Fi disable hotkey kills both Wi-Fi and ethernet

[Swâmi Petaramesh]

Public bug reported:

Not sure whether this relates to the kernel or another (which ?)
networking or hotkeys management package...?

In Kubuntu Lucid Beta 1 plus all available updates on 10/04/07, in KDE,
on Asus EeePC 1005PE.

Use of the Wi-Fi enable/disable HotKey [Fn]-[F2] not only works with Wi-
Fi, but also enables/disables wired Ethernet at the same time, which I
assume is not desired (and that I, at least, do not desire ;-)

Side note: on my system, none of the "eeepc-acpi-scripts" or "rfkill"
packages are installed, however all EeePC hotkeys I tried DO work
properly in KDE - sound volume or LCD brigthness adjustments, suspend to
RAM, enable/disable touchpad, etc. So the present problem report is not
to related to these non-installed packages.
