Wifi is finally solved! (Linux hardware driver problem! Take the time to change the Mac !)

When Ubuntu 10.10 was just installed, the hardware was basically normal, except for sound card and HDMI problems.

After two weeks of use, wifi also fails.

I haven't done it for a long time ~~

I spent two months using the network cable, so I couldn't help it. I had to spend one afternoon.

[Cause] The rfkill tool of Ubuntu upgrade blocks the wifi module by default.
