[Bug 482083] [NEW] Unable to disable bluetooth in Karmic

[Peter]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bluez

Description:	Ubuntu 9.10
Release:	9.10
bluez:
  Installed: 4.51-0ubuntu2
  Candidate: 4.51-0ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 4.51-0ubuntu2 0
        500 http://se.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

By default in system->prefereneces->startup applications the bluetooth-
applet starts with the computer. However even when this is set not to
start up my bluetooth light comes on at every start up. The only way I
know to turn it off is to either right click on the bluetooth-applet
icon in the notification aread and select "Turn Off Bluetooth". This
needs to be done every time the computer starts .

IF unticked in the startup applications Bluetooth light comes up and Bluetooth connection with my cellphone works. However the Bluetooth-applet can not be started from terminal;
$ bluetooth-applet
** Message: adding killswitch idx 2 state 0
** Message: Reading of RFKILL events failed
** Message: killswitch 2 is 0
** Message: killswitches state 0
