FWIW, that doesn't appear to be as clear cut as I expected.  I was able to resurrect \
a lap top running F32/KDE. It only has one WiFi adapter so I can't explain 0 an 3 \
below.  But here is what things show.


With everything Normal

[egreshko@acer ~]$ rfkill list
0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no

        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
3: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no

Used NetworkManger to place system in "Airplane" mode.  Wireless and Bluetooth \
stopped working.  I have a Bluetooth mouse.

Used NetworkManger to exit "Airplane" mode and then disabled Wifi.  Wireless and \
Bluetooth stopped working.

Enabled Wifi via NetworkManager, Not in Airplane mode.  Used the physical button on \
laptop to disable Wifi.
