Driving Me Insane

Post by Otis Spunkmiyer »

(and I don't have far to go any way :D ) Here's the problem, the wifi indicator light will not stop blinking and it's very annoying.
When I'm under Windows it just stay lit steady, but under Linux it blinks non stop. Is there a code I can add to keep it steady and one that will start automatically so that I don't have to go terminal every time I get booted in ?
Thanks in advance..

"to go terminal every time I get booted in"...If there's a terminal command that stops your wireless LED from blinking after a reboot, then just put it in mintMenu > Control Centre > Startup Applications.

I may have worded that wrong, what is the code :?: Is there something I can edit in a file somewhere :?:
It doesn't affect my signal so you know. But the light is right in front by the screen and it annoys you .
I'm hoping I can edit a file, but not every time I get booted in. I'm sure I'll have to go in as 'root' if there is indeed some code I can put in.

Again thanks in advance.

Oh...I thought you knew about some terminal commands to fix the problem, and all you needed help with was finding a way to get it to run automatically at boot.

In that case, here's a Launchpad bug report and an Ubuntu forums thread that may help with your issue:
