It doesn't disappear anymore, but turning bluetooth off using the indicator only brings down the interface (hci0 on my PC) and it doesn't actually power off the adapter (according to rfkill). Is that the desired behavior?

However, with that version I now also have it disappear when my existing BT hardware is merely disabled. I. e. I disable BT from the indicator, then it disappears, leaving me no obvious method to turn it back on again. I can re-enabble it in control-center, and then the indicator comes back. I think when it sees no actual BT hardware it ought to check rfkill whether there is disabled BT hardware: $ grep -r . /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/{type,state,soft,persistent} /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/type:bluetooth /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/state:1 /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/soft:0 /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/persistent:1 After disabling BT from the indicator, "soft" changes to 1: $ grep -r . /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/{type,state,soft,persistent} /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/type:bluetooth /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/state:0 /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/soft:1 /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/persistent:1 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 Package: indicator-bluetooth 0.0.6-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-6.13-generic 3.8.0-rc7 Uname: Linux 3.8.0-6-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.8-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 Date: Fri Feb 15 12:08:26 2013 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-02-08 (7 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Alpha amd64 (20130207.1) MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: indicator-bluetooth UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-bluetooth/+bug/1126108/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
