[Bug 1201671] Re: [HP Pavilion dv6-4008tx Entertainment Notebook PC] Wireless key light constantly flashing when connected

 

In windows, orange indicates wireless hardware switch is off, white
indicates wireless hardware switch is on.

When disconnected and/or connected to a network in the ON state, the
light stays white and does not flash.

I won't be able to test any potential changes to fix it as I don't have
Linux on this laptop anymore.

Title:
  [HP Pavilion dv6-4008tx Entertainment Notebook PC] Wireless key light
  constantly flashing when connected

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Hi,

  The wireless light at FN+F12 is alternating between white and orange
  all the time when connected to a wireless network. When disconnected
  but wireless is enabled it stays white and when wireless is disabled
  it turns orange.

  This behaviour doesn't seem correct.

   Suggested behaviour: When wireless is enabled (i.e.
  connected/disconnected but enabled) it should stay white. When
  wireless is disabled it should stay orange.

  Cheers,
