Note that the names of the kernel killswitches suck though, and this would need to be fixed before this bug is closed. Answer: Yes. What kind of names were you thinking of? Actually, scratch that, I don't intend on showing those anywhere in my UI. Let's remove it! +1 -- I think a lot of stuff like that in HAL can be removed. I think a USE_LEGACY_INTERFACES might be more kind, rather than just ripping out the code. Fixed in hal-info: * Tue Mar 03 2009 - Bastien Nocera <bnocera> - 20090202-3 - Remove the Dell native killswitches, replaced by the kernel killswitches in dell_laptop (#488177) and in hal: * Tue Mar 03 2009 - Bastien Nocera <bnocera> - 0.5.12-23.20090226git - Remove Dell killswitches support, they're handled through the kernel's dell_laptop module instead now (#488177), removes requires for smbios-utils |
Created attachment 333796 [details] hal-duplicated-killswitch.txt Killswitch appear both through the Dell and the kernel layers. Should the Dell backend in HAL just be removed? Mr Garrett has the answer, as he wrote the dell_laptop kernel module that does the rfkill dirty work.
