Title:
  Wireless Key On Compaq C57 Displays False Blue Light

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Here's the deal:  The f12 key is the wireless key on the CQ57.
  Regardless whether the wireless is on or off the blue key stays on
  which contributed to the below thread.  I feel this is an issue as
  until I ran rfkill list I didn't have a clue and then I had to
  continue to troubleshoot until I realized that the blue light was
  giving a false reading.

  president@OffGridOps:~$ rfkill list
  1: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN
  Soft blocked: no
  Hard blocked: yes
  president@OffGridOps:~$ sudo iwlist sca
  [sudo] password for president:
  lo Interface doesn't support scanning.

  eth0 Interface doesn't support scanning.

  ra0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down

  I found the solution to get it running, but the documentation should be noted somewhere and the blue light issue fixed:
