This is a kernel issue, presumably with the killswitch support in that
particular driver being used. Reassigning to 'linux'.
Paul, please make sure you file a separate bug report for your system,
using 'ubuntu-bug linux', to ensure we can fix the issue for you in case
this is different hardware.

Title:
Ubuntu has confused my bluetooth feature with my wireless card
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I am running ubuntu 11.10. I have been using ubuntu since 9.04. I have
11.10 installed on a Dell Inspiron switch. The OS seams to have
confused bluetooth and wireless. When I turn off bluetooth all
wireless activity immediately ceases. When I attempt to access
wireless networks through the wireless card every option is grey and I
am unable to access it. It acknowledges the pressence of the card
itself, identifys it, gives me its MAC address and even the type of
card it is but I cannot turn the wireless function on, search for
wireless networks, or connect to one via anything but the bluetooth
function. It also seems to be in perminent airplaine mode. I have
turned airplaine mode off several times and yet it still will not
allow me access to my wireless functions. When I exit the network
settings folder airplaine mode is immediately re-enstated and is "on"
again when I open it back up. I have made several attempts to rectify
this and had absolutely no luck.
