Trust me I tried everything I could find on the internet.
I can't get into it by pressing F2 (which is the key that Samsung states for this model), nor with other keys. WiFi card doesn't seem to have problems, as it works fine when it does. Is that related to the Fn-key binding process? On the live-media, there is a module called sparse_keymap, or something similar. Had installed nVidia drivers, I removed them and I tried to use Live media a certain mxm_wmi was present that wasn't on the hd. On the live media that was handling this task. Turn the hardware switch on and off, I tried looking for the module Verify and boot it back up and it wasn't working again.Īs I noticed the problem might be related to the fact that I CANNOT
ONE boot-up after this WiFi seemed to work. (Same thing for brightness up and down) WHAT I'VE ALREADY DONEīlacklisted acer_wmi: it did not work but on I noticed that a behaviour connected to the WiFi working or not is the fact that congruently with the WiFi I can also turn it ON and OFF with my hardware switch (Fn+F12), which DOES NOT work when WiFi is disabled. When it is in this state, I have no way to turn it back up as the Fn-key combination for the hardware switch does not respond. (rfkill shows hard block for phy0, which is not hard blocked on the live media). The problem occurs when I shut down the machine to boot it back up. (I noticed this because I've done it so many times). Same thing if I INSTALL any distro, it reboots and on the first session WIFi works, and if I keep rebooting it keeps working. Also, if I REBOOT from the live-media into my installed version of eOS (click restart, wait for the usb to being inactive, plug off the usb, the system boots into the hd) WiFi WORKS| The thing is that wireless WORKS when I use the Live Media on my bootable USB stick (which I'm using rn to post this) and it goes flawlessy.

I have a Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 that runs on the ath9k driver. My wireless (wlan) card is not connecting to the internet. Why did I go through so many? Because on every and each one of the, I had the same exact problem and I couldn't manage to find a fix. Recently I decided I wanted to change OS my Samsung NP270E5E, as Windows 10 was getting considerably slow and stuttery and I need it to be smooth enough to let me work without hiccups.Īs I had a bit of former experience with Linux, and as of right now I don't need big programs like Photoshop and similar, I opted for a ligth distro like Kubuntu, then Lubuntu, then Zorin OS and now Elementary OS.
