This is a very nice tool. Unfortunately, on my system running Fedora 11, I get the following erro:<br>Can&#39;t open RFKILL control device: No such file or directory<br><br>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.<br>
