Thanks for the input, John. I am much more concerned with power than boot time. Can you actually confirm the bluetooth radio is _off_? Also, I would advice using the utility "update-rc.d" to manage which programs start on boot as opposed to modifying things in init.d. --Cole Christensen On Wed, Jun 16, 2010 at 1:29 PM, jpw3 <joh...@er...> wrote: > > > > Cole Christensen-2 wrote: > > > > How do I disable and or power down the bluetooth and wifi device on my > > Overo Air? > > > > Cole Christensen > > University of Minnesota > > > > Not sure about WiFi, but I found that Bluetooth can be disabled by renaming > /etc/init.d/bluetooth (say, rename it to /etc/init.d/bluetooth.orig). > Also, > there is a Bluetooth configuration file which can be tweaked at > /etc/default/bluetooth.
