Title:
  "hp-wmi" module does not toggle wireless

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am running Ubuntu 13.10 on an HP g7-1260 laptop, which has a
  wireless toggle button on the keyboard. This button has a light that
  is supposed to turn orange when the wifi is disabled and blue when it
  is enabled. The button should be activated when the fn+f12 combination
  is pressed, but this does not happen. I am guessing that this is
  caused by the hp-wmi kernel module not translating the key press into
  a toggle event. The wireless can be turned on and off manually using
  the Ubuntu menu and with rfkill. The light on the key respond when the
  wireless is enabled and disabled.
