The best I can say is that this is probably due to the driver not
properly reporting the killswitch status; reassigning to 'linux' .

** Package changed: network-manager (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Wifi stopped working on 21 Sept '11 update of xubuntu 11.10 beta

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The system is an Averatec 3280 system with Xubuntu beta-1 installed,
  updated through 21 sept 2011. Today networking stopped working, but I
  was able to get eth0 working by editing /etc/network/interfaces to
  provide a fixed address. Then I noticed that the network manager icon
  had disappeared from the top panel. After an update and reboot, the
  icon reappeared. However I was unable to get wifi working (I do have
  Enable Wireless checked, and I do have the wifi button status set -
  LED lights up).

  The wifi chip is a Ralink corp. RT2500 802.11g (rev 01), and lsmod
  shows the driver modules are loaded. This was all working from the
  time I installed beta-1 until yesterday.
