close it until the problem is fixed in the mainline.

I think this is closer to being a serial driver than anything...

Patch solving this (it's bad rfkill error handling in hso.c) was posted at:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/30/92

but has had no response.

Patch fixing the HSO error was posted at:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/30/190

(and has been resent to linux-wireless and acked by Henrique de Moraes Holschuh and Ivo van Doorn)

hso is in drivers/network, but bugzilla doesn't want to let me reassign it there. This isn't a serial issue in any way.

Sorry, that should read that the second patch URL fixes the rfkill error
