Under Windows it can be turned on or off with Fn-F2, and it's always on
after booting. I don't know any other way.
The output from
lspci -v
tells me it's an Atheros Communications Inc Device 002c (revo 01)
Subsystem: Device 1a3b:1112
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 10
Memory at fbff000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Capabilities: <access denied>
iwconfig shows no wireless extensions on lo or eth0.
Hopefully this means more to some of you than it does to me.
The next step is to try ndiswrapper, I guess.
Jon.

Silly question - is the wifi turned on ?!
I'm using eeebuntu and everything works (on an older model).
