Tested with gnome live [1], the issue is not reproduced, the g-c-c version is 3.16.0.
I also checked the source code [2], looks like the issue is already fixed via a redesign [3]. The upstream tracker for the redesign is https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=719565 [1]: https://download.gnome.org/misc/promo-usb/gnome-3.16.x86_64.iso [2]: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-control-center/tree/panels/bluetooth/cc-bluetooth-panel.c [3]: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-control-center/commit/?id=28fecc01c46a7b082f9746744c938e499a522e4f ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #719565 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=719565 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1248720 Title: Bluetooth ON/OFF button switches OFF automatically Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Confirmed Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity-control-center package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I am on ThinkPad T61 with Ubuntu 13.10 installed. I disabled bluetooth on startup by adding: "echo disable > /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth" to /etc/rc.local. When I open gnome-control-center -> Bluetooth and click on the "ON/OFF" switch button, it switches on for a fraction of a second and then switches back to off. Below are dmesg lines corresponding to this event: [ 94.028110] usb 3-1: new full-speed USB device number 5 using uhci_hcd [ 94.194320] usb 3-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0a5c, idProduct=2110 [ 94.194325] usb 3-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [ 94.194328] usb 3-1: Product: BCM2045B [ 94.194330] usb 3-1: Manufacturer: Broadcom Corp [ 94.388169] usb 3-1: USB disconnect, device number 5 The workaround is to type "turn connectivity on/off" combination of my keyboard (FN+F5) -- then both wireless and bluetooth go off, and when I type it again, bluetooth comes back ON.
