DELL Latitude E5510 has a hardware switch to disable and enable
bluetooth and wifi devices ("hard blocking" in terms of rfkill). In
terms of wifi, this works great: After hard unblocking, the device
resumes back to normal operation without any manual intervention. That
was also working with bluetooth as of ubuntu 14.04, kernel 4.2.
In ubuntu 16.04, kernel 4.4.0-31-generic, together with systemd, this is
not working any more:
After hard blocking and unblocking
- bluetooth is not working at all
- the applet-indicator remains gray
- bluetooth cannot be enabled with the applet-indicator (see
https://storage6.static.itmages.com/i/16/0717/h_1468721829_7715160_83cd33bfba.png).
Applet-indicator remains gray
- rfkill list tells me that the kernel knows about the hard unblocking (turns
from "yes" to "no"):
rfkill list bluetooth
2: dell-bluetooth: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
8: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
The device is a
sudo lsusb
Bus 002 Device 010: ID 413c:8187 Dell Computer Corp. DW375 Bluetooth Module
Workaround: After a
sudo service bluetooth restart
the bluetooth device turns back to normal operation and the applet-
indicator turns from gray to black (available).
Suggested fix: Make the workaround obsolete.
