(Get the code!)
I am not confident that aircraft-manager-5 actually works to disable the radios, which is the important part where battery use and aircraft restriction compliance is concerned. That's why the author switched to the other method in later version, and why the belmont11 version is the one shipped on the mini.
I updated the packaging of the belmont11 version so that it can be installed in Jaunty. The only changes that I made were to the debian/control and debian/rules files. No code changes were required. You can install it from my PPA: https:/
Hopefully, the maintainer will adopt my packaging changes.
Please note that the Jaunty version will only enable and disable the radios. It will not disable wireless in network-manager. The dbus method that aircraft-manager uses for enabling and disabling wireless in network-manager does not appear to work in Jaunty. I would be happy to update the utility if someone can tell me an alternate command to run.
