Bug description:
As requested by Pilot6, i'm opening a new bug:
The bug is that there is no rfkill switch on this laptop, so the
driver exports the rfkill switch is always on, which prevents the
NetworkManager service from starting to configure the WiFi.
this is an immidiate follow up of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-lts-utopic/+bug/1397021
The exact same issue was resolved for that Lenovo model by adding that model to the hardcoded list in ideapad_laptop.c
Here is another model that needs to be added to the same list:
System Information
Manufacturer: LENOVO
Product Name: 80QD
Version: Lenovo YOGA 700-14ISK
I think a dynamic list of models might be a better idea for this
driver, as there are likely more models without hardware kill
switches, which are still not in that list.
