Hi list,
When I click 'enable wireless', nm will automaticly uncheck the button
before 'enable wireless'.
Even if I try to boot with ubuntu 13.04 livecd , it still cannot
enable wireless.

Please help me , thanks .
if you need more info, just let me know.
Two things that suppress wireless come to mind.
Does iwconfig show a wireless device? If not, you may be missing the
necessary firmware. Check the output of dmesg to see if there are any
messages regarding missing firmware.
Does "rfkill list" show anything blocked?
