** Description changed: + SRU Justification [precise]: + + Impact: Prevents using WiFi without Bluetooth, or vice-versa. + Fix: Patch adds two Dell laptop models to rfkill blacklist table; affects only those models. + Testcase: Disable Bluetooth via the indicator icon; verify that WiFi continues to operate. + + This patch is being carried in quantal as UBUNTU SAUCE (commit 318d5bb). + + ----- + In oneiric (and daily kernel) there seems to be a bug in dell-laptop. When you kill dell-bluetooth, it also hard blocks 'Wireless LAN'. This should NOT be the case and only block your bluetooth. jean-louis@laptop-jl:~$ sudo rfkill list 0: dell-wifi: Wireless LAN - Soft blocked: no - Hard blocked: no + Soft blocked: no + Hard blocked: no 1: dell-bluetooth: Bluetooth - Soft blocked: no - Hard blocked: no + Soft blocked: no + Hard blocked: no 2: dell-wwan: Wireless WAN - Soft blocked: no - Hard blocked: no + Soft blocked: no + Hard blocked: no 5: hci0: Bluetooth - Soft blocked: no - Hard blocked: no + Soft blocked: no + Hard blocked: no 6: phy0: Wireless LAN - Soft blocked: no - Hard blocked: no + Soft blocked: no + Hard blocked: no jean-louis@laptop-jl:~$ sudo rfkill block 1 jean-louis@laptop-jl:~$ sudo rfkill list 0: dell-wifi: Wireless LAN - Soft blocked: no - Hard blocked: no + Soft blocked: no + Hard blocked: no 1: dell-bluetooth: Bluetooth - Soft blocked: yes - Hard blocked: no + Soft blocked: yes + Hard blocked: no 2: dell-wwan: Wireless WAN - Soft blocked: no - Hard blocked: no + Soft blocked: no + Hard blocked: no 6: phy0: Wireless LAN - Soft blocked: no - Hard blocked: yes + Soft blocked: no + Hard blocked: yes FYI: root@laptop-jl:/sys/kernel/debug/dell_laptop# cat rfkill status: 0x1071D Bit 0 : Hardware switch supported: 1 Bit 1 : Wifi locator supported: 0 Bit 2 : Wifi is supported: 1 Bit 3 : Bluetooth is supported: 1 Bit 4 : WWAN is supported: 1 Bit 5 : Wireless keyboard supported: 0 Bit 8 : Wifi is installed: 1 Bit 9 : Bluetooth is installed: 1 Bit 10: WWAN is installed: 1 Bit 16: Hardware switch is on: 1 Bit 17: Wifi is blocked: 0 Bit 18: Bluetooth is blocked: 0 Bit 19: WWAN is blocked: 0 hwswitch_state: 0x7 Bit 0 : Wifi controlled by switch: 1 Bit 1 : Bluetooth controlled by switch: 1 Bit 2 : WWAN controlled by switch: 1 Bit 7 : Wireless switch config locked: 0 Bit 8 : Wifi locator enabled: 0 Bit 15: Wifi locator setting locked: 0 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: linux-image-3.0.0-14-generic 3.0.0-14.23 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-14.23-generic 3.0.9 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-14-generic x86_64 AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
