Public bug reported: Using a Dell XPS 13 with Ubuntu 12.04.
In order to restore RF interfaces to their previous state between boots, rfkill is run via two Upstart jobs in /etc/init/: rfkill-store.conf (run while shutting down) and rfkill-restore.conf (run when starting up). However, while rfkill-restore.conf starts on the Upstart local- filesystems signal, there is a high probability that the RF kill switches in /sys/class/rfkill/ still won't yet be populated (i.e. every time on the Dell XPS 13). This results in behavior like the following: 1. Disable bluetooth via applet. 2. Reboot. 3. Login. 4. Observe bluetooth is re-enabled! Bluetooth should have stayed disabled, but since the kill switches weren't present when rfkill-restore was run, the kill switch states were not restored. ** Affects: rfkill (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Tags: upstart -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1073669 Title: Bluetooth won't stay disabled after reboot due to early upstart job To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rfkill/+bug/1073669/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
