Try latest wireless-testing or 2.6.31-rc1; there may already be a fix for your hardware thanks to recently added rfkill support. > Also, while the hotkey works how do query the current on/off status of it > in Linux? There's the /dev/rfkill device (see http://git.sipsolutions.net/rfkill.git) and I believe there are files under /sys/ as well which show the state but I don't have the details handy (/sys/class/rfkill/xxx/state?). Also I don't have any hardware with a kill switch/LED so YMMV :) -- Bob Copeland %% www.bobcopeland.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
