Asus 1011CX indicator-power issues/wireless network issues

(1/3) > >>

Aaron Preabt:
Jim/anyone else,

I was finalizing our custom Ubermix image that we will be using for our Cedar Trail devices. Everything was working wonderfully on the base machine so I captured it. When I applied the freshly captured image to another 1011CX strange things happened. Firstly, the power icon that is driven by the indicator-power package appears then disappears constantly, but only when plugged into power. When on battery it functions as expected. As soon as a power adapter touches the machine the icon will disappear, only to re-appear a second or two later. It continues this until you unplug it.

The other issue we are seeing is with wireless connectivity. My base machine was able to connect to our two SSID's we have in our district without a problem. The test machine is not able to connect  to whatever wireless I had as default. It will connect to the other network without a problem though.

Ideas?

If you are running a version prior to 1.03, there was a bug that made the wireless settings non-portable. To fix it, follow the instructions on http://wiki.ubermix.org/page/Manual_Updates under the "v1.03 Updates" section.

Not sure on the battery indicator, but would guess that it has something to do with the way it is tracking battery history. Does it get any better after a reboot?

Aaron Preabt:
Jim,

I'm using 1.03 but also tried 1.04.

It doesn't get any better after rebooting. I even tried to remove and reinstall through package manager. It's the strangest thing.

What's even funiier is that I downloaded a fresh 1.04 from the site and applied it to a fresh, never touched machine. Same issue.

jnetman1:
I'm thinking maybe this is a BIOS issue. Are the BIOS versions on the good one and the troubled ones the same?

jnetman1:
Just posted a 1.05 release with quite a bit newer kernel and drivers. Didn't experience the issue on my 1011cx with the new version.
