You're probably better off monitoring /dev/rfkill yourself directly (for now[1]), there's example code in gnome-bluetooth, look at lib/bluetooth-killswitch.c. You'd basically just need to change the type of killswitch you're monitoring. Cheers [1]: We'd probably want a D-Busified rfkilld in the future. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
