I have a 4520 as well; for the most part I am pleased with it. However, I can't get Wifi working under Ubuntu. I just updated to 8.10 and installed "linux-backports-modules-2.6.27-7-generic" which contains the ath5k module, which I am understand supports the AR242x chipset. The kernel sees the device (dmesg): 07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01) but NetworkManager doesn't see it. At this point, I am wondering whether the Atheros card is *actually switched on*. Pressing the appropriate button in that narrow line of keys above the keyboard has no effect. I would also expect a LED to go on and off as well as the device becoming visible as a network device. When I booted my previous Acer, the WiFi interface was active by default, and a rather bright orange LED embedded in an on/off button at the front of the notebook indicated this. When you press the WiFi button, does an LED (like with the CapsLock indicator) get turned on and off? Alas, I scrubbed Vista when I bought this thing, so I can't test the WiFi under Windows. TIA Hi Shobhit,
