[Bug 1424886] Re: Fn+F2 does not toggle wifi

 

Brian Harkenss, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
better. As per
http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/1015E/HelpDesk_Download/ an
update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (304). If
you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then
please mark this report Status Confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding.

** Description changed:

- As per Christopher M. Penalver (penalvch) in bug 1277959, I am following
- this procedure.
+ Fn+F2 does not toggle wifi.
