Public bug reported: During UDS-P I was experimenting with various settings to reduce power consumption on my Lenonvo Thinkpad 410s.
I turned Bluetooth off via the System Settings - Bluetooth panel. I also removed the icon from the panel by turning visibility to Off. This all works great except for the simple fact that I cannot re-enable my Bluetooth anymore. When I re-launch System Settings - Bluetooth, both toggle switches are "Off", and the left hand column below includes the text "No Bluetooth Adapters found". There seems to be no way to re-enable my Bluetooth now as both switches are disabled and grayed out. I believe this is due to the fact that when BT is disabled, the device disappears from the bus, which leaves nothing for the code to grab in order to re-enable the device. This is a guess on my part, as I haven't yet taken a look at the code... My machine is running 11.10 with all of the latest updates. The version of gnome-control-center on my machine is: gnome-control-center: Installed: 1:3.2.2-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 1:3.2.2-0ubuntu1 ** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/913736 Title: Thinkpad 410s -- Cannot re-enable Bluetooth after it's been disabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/913736/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
