Hi all,
I have an old Fujitsu Siemens Amilo 7400 notebook with a button to activate WiFi.
I installed Slitaz 5.0 RC3 on the hard disk.
Previously, I had Lubuntu 12.04 on it and I needed to insert the kernel module "wistron_btns" in order to enable this key (and WiFi subsequently).
If the module isn't loaded the key has no function and the WiFi adapter stays hard-locked. This can be seen in both: the dmesg output and the "rfkill list" output.
As it seems the latest 5.0 RC3 kernel 3.2.71 does not come with this module and I can't find it either in the modules folder structure.
So, I guess I need to compile it but how.
I found the source code wistron_bnts.c in the source tree on kernel.org but I have no idea how to build the module. All instruction I found so far seemed to be made for the 2.6 kernel.
Any help and advice highly appreciated.
Thanks
Tim
