[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1996198] Re: Fix rfkill causing soft blocked wifi
This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-mtk/5.15.0-1030.34 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-jammy-linux-mtk' to 'verification-done-jammy- linux-mtk'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification- needed-jammy-linux-mtk' to 'verification-failed-jammy-linux-mtk'. If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

This bug is awaiting verification that the linux/5.19.0-27.28 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-kinetic' to 'verification-done-kinetic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-kinetic' to 'verification-failed-kinetic'. If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.
