That all fits with what I was expecting. Linux can also do enabling "by software". At the moment, you need to download and compile a utility to poke /dev/rfkill. I wouldn't bother testing it, because I didn't change that bit :-). I'll try extending this to bluetooth and wwan as Matthew suggested. If you have time to run "acpidump" and send me the output, that would help me check the details.
