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.
