I have Thinkpad W530 and I noticed the following things after applying the
solution from the comment #38
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=638117#c38) from the upstream bug
report in gnome-bluetooth:
1. BT settings is remembered across reboots (ok); wifi - is not (not ok)
2. F5 + Fn
This is either a duplicate of
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/446657 or very
closely linked.
It appears this is an upsteam bug in gnome-bluetooth and is still open
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=638117#c9
The bug is currently present on Ubuntu 14.04 on a Thinkpad
I found this page after getting fed up with this and doing some Google
searches on the issue. I have a ThinkPad T43 and a Toshiba netbook
(NB205-N310/BN), and neither save the Bluetooth setting on 12.04 or
12.10. I can turn it off a dozen times and it always turns back on the
next time I reboot. I
This still doesn't appear to be working correctly. I've got a T61
running 12.04.1 and on every boot it still has bluetooth enabled all the
time.
It's saving the state to /var/lib/rfkill/saved-state correctly but on
startup it never gets restored. If I manually run sudo start rfkill-
restore it
This is fixed for the 12.04 LTS release with the inclusion of a
save/restore upstart job in the rfkill package.

So I want bluetooth disabled on startup for power saving, and Nick's fix

thinkpad bluetooth hotkey fn+F5 regression
Ever since I installed 9.04 on my thinkpad from xp, everytime i boot,
the wifi and blue tooth will be switched on. Using Fn+F5, instead of
switching off BT, I switched of wifi numerous times. (when i was
downloading important files...:().
I dont know if it is correct or not, i did as follows
You know, it is really no problem to simply create the necessary file in
/etc/modprobe.d and put the options line in there like Nick suggested. I
find this workaround cleaner than letting the bluetooth module load and
then explicitly unload it later.
The following will create the file

Nick's method above has worked for me in Jaunty. I have not tried yours yet. I

there any particular place in the file to add the line or does it not matter?

I just throw them at the end of the file.
With my method, the bluetooth led would be lit for a while at bootup and
at some point when the splash screen is running the bluetooth led would
then be turned off.

Confirmed on Thinkpad T61, model 7658CTO.
Running echo disable /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth appears to have
exactly the same effect as toggling Fn+F5 until bluetooth HARDWARE is
off (as opposed to the Ubuntu software talking to that hardware).
Still, toggling it with Fn+F5 is not persistent.

Same for me on an Asus F3Tc.
I can switch the bluetooh off with the switch in front of the computer,
but when the computer restart it's on again and I have to turn it on and
then off again to shut down the led..
Even worse, the combination Fn+F2, which should disable the wireless is

One simple workaround is to add the following line to '/etc/rc.local':

I can confirm that as well ccc1 in 8.04 fn+F5 cycled through these

The x61 also has a hardware switch that disables/enables both bluetooth and
wifi. There is a bit of overlap in functionality here but maybe that is
Sorry that may not have been clear. As ccc1 reported currently in intrepid
fn+F5 only disables and enables bluetooth but this setting is not saved
