Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: hal
Dell machines with a bluetooth/wlan killswitch using hal version 0.5.9.1
need /usr/bin/dellWirelessCtl, otherwise, when using network-manager,
logs are filled with this line every 6 seconds:
NetworkManager: <info> Error getting killswitch power:
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.KillSwitch.NotSupported - Access type not
supported
A workaround is to manually do the following:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ aptitude install libsmbios-bin
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo ln -s /usr/sbin/dellWirelessCtl
/usr/bin/dellWirelessCtl
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo modprobe dcdbas
