I own a medion 96350.This laptop has a HW wifi switch which isn't accessible in GNU/Linux. This has never been a problem. The switch is on. I used ubuntu 14.04 for years and had never any problems. Now I installed (multiple boot) Debian 8 with MATE. The wifi is not available (the 'enable wifi' button is there but can not be clicked) after a cold start. When I boot into the old ubuntu 14.04 everything works fine, and when I shut ubuntu down and restart (warm) in debian I have wifi access without any problem. I tested ubuntu MATE (18.04) from a life disk and had the same problem as in debian.



Does anybody has an idea to solve this ?



update:
the output of rfkill in the debian install mentions: "hardblocked: yes".



in the ubuntu 14.04 install this is:



0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: no
 Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: no
 Hard blocked: no


I have no idea why there is a second Wireless LAN.

somehow ubuntu 14.04 is able to toggle the hardware switch ?

  • If I had to guess, I would guess ubuntu has firmware packages installed for it.

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
