Hmm, I am still wondering about why NM insists on if up'ing the device. I read bits of things and apparently hal is supposed to know the device is rfkill'ed and let NM know. But lshal is not listing the device as having an killswitch. I don't know how hal is supposed to work out that info though.
also I noted that /sys/class/rfkill_backport/rfkill0/state goes from 1 to 2 when I slide the switch to the 'off' position. Some says it should be 0?
Don't know if hal is affected by its being rfkill_backport (compat-wireless) rather than rfkill (stock vendor kernel). well, it should look there if it isn't :-).
It looks like it is a hal problem...
