Title:
  wireless hardblocked and wireless enable button not functional

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Laptop is an HP Pavilion dm4-3170se. Dual booting Windows 7 and
  ubuntu. In Windows, system boots with wireless disabled and then
  pressing the wireless enable button twice enables WiFi.

  In ubuntu, system boots with wireless disabled and wireless enable
  button has no functionality either directly or in combination with the
  fn-key.

  Module hp_wmi may be the culprit? But disabling this has no effect on
  hardblock.
