[Bug 1404612] Re: Power management of the wireless LAN does not work.

 

katsu, if you are advising that you are unable to turn on wireless Power
Management, because it is off by default, that is intentional, as the
Power Management backend is not robust across devices. IIRC, turning it
on and expecting it to work, or just turning it on are not presently
supported due to this.

Is this what you were expecting?

  Power management works fine.
  There is no problem to kernel-3.13.0-40.

  but kernel-3.13.0-41 & -43 changed to /sys/class/net/wlan0/device/enable.
  ( enabled -> enable )
  Power management does not work.
