	Do the nvidia 180 drivers still have the choppy compiz problems? I just installed 180 (seems it got pushed to Ubuntu's stable repositories today), so I will test in a bit.

		+	How about simpy adding

		+	bluetooth_state=$?
		+	fi
		+	...
		+	In my case it works like a charm so that wireless LAN can always be activated with Fn-F5.
		+	Wouldn't it perhaps be an easy solution to the problem, because running sudo ip l s wlan0 up from terminal every time

 This workaround works. I've read it on the LP bug report as well. I don't know if it has to do with the broken EDID. I've seen much more laptops with broked EDIDs, but this hang does not occur with Intrepid on those machines.--[[User:Gertvdijk|Gertvdijk]] 18:42, 6 November 2008 (CET)

 This is a problem between the 177.* drivers and broken Lenovo DFP EDID.
 You can make it work by increasing timeout in GDM:
 e.g. set GdmXServerTimeout=45 in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
