Description

At boot time (and probably at hotplug time too):

  • unblock Wi-Fi, WWAN and WiMAX
  • unblock Bluetooth so that it can be dealt with another way: if Bluetooth is disabled by default by the firmware, then the chosen way of handling it could not be implemented unless we unblock Bluetooth ourselves.
  • soft-block all other kind of wireless devices (UWB, GPS, FM)

(See commit 4ad1490d in Liberte Linux Git.)

Roughly implemented in feature/set-wireless-devices-state, handling of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi works fine.

Branch has been reviewed and tested succesfully at commit c7e0ca9.

The user doc was reviewed and improved.
