Public bug reported: I have HP ZBook 15 (1st generation, 2013) with ubuntu-MATE 64-bit; latest updates installed. I am presently using an ethernet cable network so I turn the wireless network off. After each new start or reboot of the machine the wifi radio gets always on and I always have to switch it off manually.
The notebook uses an Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6235 (rev 24) wireless adapter (I hope this is a hardware version, not a driver one). I think that the On status by default is not good for several reasons: - energy consumption is higher - security may be affected - more electromagnetic radiation in environment ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: linux-firmware 1.149 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-16.19-generic 4.2.3 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-16-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: MATE Date: Fri Oct 16 16:16:11 2015 Dependencies: InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-10-04 (11 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-MATE 15.10 "Wily Werewolf" - Alpha amd64 (20151003) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: linux-firmware UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: linux-firmware (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug wily -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1506888 Title: wifi status not remembered after reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1506888/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
