Needless to say it's impossible to connect via wifi, hence the raised priority. For the sake of completeness, let me add that 3.12.8 isn't affected, so it's clearly a regression.

Can you please test the patch that is attached to the kernel bug report: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=186411&action=diff&context=patch&collapsed=&headers=1&format=raw This change is not yet in the mainline kernel; feedback is needed to understand if this fixes the issue on older systems such as yours. If you are not familiar with patching the kernel, I can create an (unofficial) ppa for you with a kernel package that contains this patch. Please let me know if you are using still Ubuntu Trusty with the original 3.13 kernel or with an LTS kernel (3.16 or 3.19), or if you are using a newer release of Ubuntu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1290418 Title: rfkill unable to control HP 2510p wireless devices To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1290418/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.13 kernel[0]. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed". Thanks in advance.
