I wan't to completely ignore events (state) of software\hardware rfkill buttons.Why would you ever want to do that? I can see that you might want to ignore soft buttons, but you can use urfkilld for that. Ignoring hard buttons is completely useless -- they will affect the device they're wired up to *anyway*.No. That is not true. Hardware rfkill button doesn't have any action to wlan\bluetooth devices on ThinkPad x201i with "CONFIG_RFKILL is not set". I can assume this is true for other notebooks.
Then why is it a hard button instead of the soft button on a separate platform device? johannes
