You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Using Ubuntu Karmic as of 07.07.09, on a Thinkpad T400.

Problem:
In Jaunty the FN+F7 key combination allowed to cycle WLAN/BT modes between both off, only WLAN on, only BT on, both on. In Karmic, it only allows both on, both off.

Workaround:
One can manually disable bluetooth with
sudo sh -c "echo disabled > /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth"

** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Incomplete
