I'd like to chime in here and say that from my point of view, not enabling the wireless network adaptor until asked by userspace is the way to go. It reduces power requirements, and it pushes the configuration details out to userspace, where they can be handled according to the policy setup by the distro/user. Having my latop bootup and turn on the wireless card and join an AP without my explicity asking is a bad thing to have happen. John |
