[Bug 1548844] Re: Inspiron 13-7359: rfkill button has no effect

 

Hi and thanks for spotting! My BIOS has been updated now.

1) Dmidecode now shows:

01.06.00
02/25/2016

2) The hotkey still does not work, but now there is a message in dmesg
when you press it:

dell_wmi: Unknown key with scancode 0xe008 pressed

or

dell_wmi: Unknown key 0xe008 pressed

The former is with upstream 4.5rc5, the latter with Ubuntu's
4.4.0-11-generic.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed

Title:
  Inspiron 13-7359: rfkill button has no effect

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Nothing happens when the button to enable/disable rfkill (a k a
  "airplane mode" or "wifi/bluetooth disable") is pressed.

  Most other buttons seems to work according to evtest although some of
  them has no effect (and the "switch video mode" button generates
  Alt-P). Some of the buttons generate messages like:

  [  335.755925] dell_wmi: Unknown WMI event type 0x00: 0xe00c
  [  335.755928] dell_wmi: Unknown WMI event type 0x00: 0x3

  ...but the rfkill button is not one of them.
