[PATCH] rfkill: parameters documentation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

This patch documents two rfkill module parameters, namely
rfkill.default_state and rfkill.master_switch_mode.

I constructed the patch from Ubuntu packaged source, but I'm happy to
adapt it to any git tree.

Kind regards,
Andrew
