You have been subscribed to a public bug: The airplane mode can be activated with the wireless key combination on this laptop (fn + PrtScn) You will see the "Airplane mode enabled" notification, and the BT / Wireless turned off accordingly.
However the same key combination cannot turn the wireless back on. You will see the "Airplane mode disabled" notification followed by the "Airplane mode enabled" message. It feels a bit like a repeat-key issue. But the evtest shows the identical result: * Turn on the airplane mode: Event: time 1555070280.383302, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 247 (KEY_RFKILL), value 1 Event: time 1555070280.383302, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ Event: time 1555070280.383327, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 247 (KEY_RFKILL), value 0 Event: time 1555070280.383327, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ * Turn off the airplane mode: Event: time 1555070325.562502, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 247 (KEY_RFKILL), value 1 Event: time 1555070325.562502, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ Event: time 1555070325.562514, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 247 (KEY_RFKILL), value 0 Event: time 1555070325.562514, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ dmesg for turning on the airplane mode: Apr 12 08:03:53 u-Dell-Precision-M3800 systemd[1]: Starting Load/Save RF Kill Switch Status...
