Hi Eva,

It compiles and works ok on gentoo.
Please find the ebuild below.

The detection for the physical switch worked well too. NetworkManager doesn't 
come back cleanly after that so I had to restart it but this is probably 
unrelated.

2 things :

- I have the 5100AGN and sony-wifi listed is it normal ?
- I first tried to put it on a panel but it didn't played well with it. It 
would be great to have all the states within an icon !

Thanks for the plasmoid !

Guillaume BINET.
