--- Comment #3 from JP Rosevear
There is no such feature in the upstream SVN trunk as far as I can see. And as it currently workit's really better to drop the feature.
Its in the 0.6.x branch only currently, it has not been forward ported because of all the changes going on in trunk.
HAL can't send a signal since HAL don't get an info if this change. At least also because this all differ from machine to machine. There is no common sysfs interface for killshwitch.
NetworkManager could do on ThinkPads the following: 1) check initial the status of WLAN/Killswitch 2) listen to HAL for ButtonPressed=killswitch event 3) call GetPower()
Something like that also for Dell (and other) machines (if it doesn work: report it): 1) check initial the status of WLAN/Killswitch 2) listen on the input device for the keyboard for KEY_WLAN (keycode: 238) 3) call GetPower()
Isn't this the type of abstraction hal should deal with? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
