[Bug 1313196] Re: [HP ProBook 450 G1 Notebook PC] Wireless switch not working
Mauro, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER
where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-3.15-rc2
This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing
If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER
As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
[HP ProBook 450 G1 Notebook PC] Wireless switch not working
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
This system has a button to enable and disable the WLAN interface. This button has a LED on it: it's white when the WLAN is enabled, orange when it is not. Pressing this button, however, does not have any effect on both Ubuntu 13.10 and Mint 16 KDE (which is also based on Ubuntu 13.10). When I press this button, the following output is produced in dmesg:
[ 1536.228861] atkbd serio0: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0xf8 on isa0060/serio0).
[ 1536.228872] atkbd serio0: Use 'setkeycodes e078 <keycode>' to make it known.
[ 1536.308669] atkbd serio0: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0xf8 on isa0060/serio0).
[ 1536.308680] atkbd serio0: Use 'setkeycodes e078 <keycode>' to make it known.
There's just a minor difference in behavior between Ubuntu and Mint:
while in Mint the led correctly turns white when the WLAN interface is
enabled (and the outcome of "rfkill block/unblock" is correctly
reflected by the button led color), in Ubuntu this led seems to always
stay orange, even if the WLAN interface is active (and connection is
correctly established). Please note that I only tried to run Ubuntu
from a USB stick (no installation at all, no update performed).
WORKAROUND: I can use rfkill block/unblock to enable/disable the WLAN
interface.
