This is a very nice tool. Unfortunately, on my system running Fedora 11, I get the following erro: Can't open RFKILL control device: No such file or directory
Using strace, I discovered that rfkill is trying to open path /dev/rfkill, but this path does not exist on my system. Instead, it should try to open path /sys/class/rfkill.

On most laptops, there is a way to disable Wi-Fi either through function keys or kill switch. I am wondering if there is a way programmatically speaking to figure out whether or not Wi-Fi is currently disabled because the user has pressed the Wi-Fi function key or turned Wi-Fi off with the kill switch.
You can install "rfkill" package and use same-named command: % rfkill list 0: tpacpi_bluetooth_sw: Bluetooth Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no 2: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no
