Public bug reported:
I disabled bluetooth on my laptop in indicator-bluetooth and now
whenever I try to re-enable it, the switch flips off again after I flip
it to "on". I had to resort to the command line to enable my bluetooth
again.
alan@deep-thought:~$ sudo rfkill list
[sudo] password for alan:
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
2: tpacpi_bluetooth_sw: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: no
alan@deep-thought:~$ sudo rfkill unblock all
alan@deep-thought:~$ sudo rfkill list
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
2: tpacpi_bluetooth_sw: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
27: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
At this point it was re-enabled in the indicator and I can now use
bluetooth again. Possibly related to bug 1126108
