Why do not you run the command RFKILL in BeagleBone?

I have installed Ansgtrom V2012-02, but not run the rfkill command, the application isinstalled in / dev / rfkill, but not responding.

have you done an opkg upgrade?

I noticed RFKILL works in a stock image but things break when I upgrade.

I am using the oe setup-scripts to build the kernel for beagleboard-xm
rev B, and rfkill is blocking both of my wifi adapters.
I've tried rt2800 and rtl8192cu based dongles with the drivers that
come with the kernel, and they are stuck soft blocked:

# ifconfig wlan0 up
ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill

# rfkill unblock all

# rfkill list
0: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: no

# ifconfig wlan0 up
ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill

Compiling the kernel with CONFIG_RFKILL=n makes the rt2800 work, and
the rtl8192cu at least comes up with ifup.
Bluetooth adapters don't seem to be affected by this as the rfkill list shows.
