Ubuntu 9.10
I have a hp6735b laptop with wi-fi/bluetooth Broadcom BCM4322 module installed. The wireless kill switch can only turn wi-fi off, but not on, so I have to reboot every time I turn it off. 
If the system boots with killswitch off, the wireless module is not listed in lspci and cant be turned on. Have to boot with wireless on already. 
If I boot with killswitch on, the device works, but when I try to disable it, wi-fi is still listed as working, thow it actually stops and can`t be turned on again until reboot.
The bluetooth works fine, though controlled with the same button.
