laptop-mode: Failed

Hey there

I recently installed laptop-mode-tools on my dell vostro 1520. I seems to work pretty good, however my error log shows me "laptop-mode: Failed". So my question is now, what does this mean an what could cause this error?

Below is a verbose output of a laptop-mode start process:

Re: laptop-mode: Failed

Try to reproduce:

$ sudo iwconfig wlan0 power on
Error for wireless request "Set Power Management" (8B2C) :
    SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported.

This may mean that power management on the wlan hardware is not supported, and we should turn it off in /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/wireless-power.conf:

CONTROL_WIRELESS_POWER_SAVING=0

Now I don't get the error anymore, and still in hope wireless saves power automagically.

PS.
Odd is that /etc/laptop-mode/modules/ is empty as all the other dirs mentioned in 3 latter log items.
