John,

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it!

Just a naive follow-up question then: Wouldn't it be possible for the
ath9k driver to ignore the rfkill switch settings?  (Assuming, of
course, that there is no actual physical power disconnect, which I
doubt.)

Is there a simple way to override the rfkill effect on ath9k via
/proc or /sys?  Or alternatively, if I were to recompile the ath9k
module, what would I need to change/disable?  (On the other hand,
hacking sony-laptop seems to be the easier way.)

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Ralph
