DoomWarrior, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-f.47 needs-upstream-testing ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/949427 Title: HP 635 - wifi doen't work (phy is hard blocked) Status in The Linux Kernel: Confirmed Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This Notebook runs SLES 11 (SP1) with working wifi and bluetooth with working light for key on Fn+F12. After installing Ubuntu 12.04 wifi stopped working. I tried to track down the issue, as far as I can say there is an issue in either ath9k or/and hp-wim Problem: Hardwarekey Fn+F12 doen't change the light on the keyboard between white (on) and orange (off). The light change while booting from orange (off) to white (on) and stays there, no matter what I do! There are four devices in rfkill: 0: hci0: Bluetooth Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no 6: phy1: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes 9: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no 10: hp-bluetooth: Bluetooth Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no device 9 and 10 are belonging to hp-wmi. If I rmmod the hp-wmi driver those two devices are gone and Fn+F12 does nothing. If driver is active Fn+F12 toggle 9 and 10 (light is not updated!) but not the phy (dev 6) or hci (dev 0). Since hci is not blocked by default bluetooth is working, but wifi is blocked on boot. There is no BIOS option in the HP635 to enable wifi! Even worst if I call "rfkill unblock all" events occour for all four devices, but hp-wifi (dev 9) and hp-bluetooth (dev 10) stay on soft blocked: yes! Bluetooth unity gui element obviously scans for dev 10 and always report an deactivated bluetooth connection. (But Bluetooth is working since hci0 is unblocked and running!) There is a commit for hp-wmi which plays around with soft & hard block stats http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=c0b9c6494498014f28dbec37fe327bf016a91356 which could cause some of the problems above. summery: hardware button don't toggle wifi and bluetooth hardware blocks only hp-wmi hardware blocks software button toggle software blocks for some devs, but hp-wmi software blocks aren't touched. It is impossible to have all blocks to "unblock" ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: linux-image-3.2.0-18-generic 3.2.0-18.28 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-18.28-generic 3.2.9 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-18-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
