You could try rfkill acces by setting the permission of /dev/rfill 
correct. See the readme. 

To fix the hal/dbus problem:

Can you try the attached rfkill-applet.py:
- put it into the unpacked rfkill-applet-0.6, but make a backup copy
  of the old one
- again call
	python rfkill-applet.py -d
- try to deactivate the wifi BUT WITHIN THE WINDOW THAT IS SHOWN
  (not in the one integrated into the panel!)


What is printed? Does it freeze?

Best wishes

Norbert
