Summary: Wifi LED on Thinkpad X201 (iwlwifi) always blinking
since 5ed540a
Product: Drivers
Version: 2.5
Kernel Version: 2.6.39-rc
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: low
Priority: P1
Component: network-wireless
AssignedTo: drivers_network-wireless at kernel-bugs.osdl.org
ReportedBy: chronoss at gmx.de
Regression: Yes
On my Thinkpad X201, since commit 5ed540aecc2aae92d5c97b9a9306a5bf88ad5574
("iwlwifi: use mac80211 throughput trigger") the behaviour of the Wifi LED has
changed in an annoying way.
Before, it blinked only if there was data traffic; otherwise it stayed on.
After said commit, when joining a WLAN it is turned on and shortly after starts
to blink. Then it never stops blinking (until leaving the network). And if
there's data traffic it blinks even faster. This is /very/ distracting, and
counterintuitive (blinking should only occur on traffic).
