Hello
I am not able to unblock Bluetooth:
# rfkill unblock all
# rfkill list 4
4: hp-bluetooth: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: no
The Bluetooth layer remains "Soft blocked".
My system looks like this:
- Linux: 3.11-rc1
- Userspace: Debian wheezy
- rfkill: 0.5
- HW: HP dv7 6130ez
- Bluetooth probably provided by:
# lspci
...
0d:00.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. RT5390
[802.11 b/g/n 1T1R G-band PCI Express Single Chip]
Kernel logs show no trace of a problem:
Bluetooth: Core ver 2.16
Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized
Bluetooth: HCI socket layer initialized
Bluetooth: L2CAP socket layer initialized
Bluetooth: SCO socket layer initialized
Bluetooth: RFCOMM TTY layer initialized
Bluetooth: RFCOMM socket layer initialized
Bluetooth: RFCOMM ver 1.11
Bluetooth: BNEP (Ethernet Emulation) ver 1.3
Bluetooth: BNEP filters: protocol multicast
Bluetooth: BNEP socket layer initialized
I had to provide some firware in order for the Bluetooth device to show
up in rfkill. I copied those firmware blobs over from Debian's
"firmware-ralink" package. It must be one of these:
rt2661.bin
rtl_nic
rtl_nic/rtl8168f-1.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8168e-1.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8168f-2.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8168e-3.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8168d-2.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8168e-2.fw
rtl_nic/rtl8105e-1.fw

rt3071.bin
rt3090.bin
rt2561s.bin
RTL8192E
RTL8192E/main.img
RTL8192E/boot.img
RTL8192E/data.img
Additional possibly useful info:
# lsmod |grep blue
bluetooth 169854 10 bnep,rfcomm
rfkill 19242 6 cfg80211,hp_wmi,bluetooth
crc16 12343 2 ext4,bluetooth
What can I do to unblock the Bluetooth?
Thank you,

lsusb might be useful here too. hp_wmi hooked into rfkill might mean
that hp-wmi is setting that soft block. Perhaps you have a keyboard
combo to unblock it?

Thanks Pat, there's only the "lighthouse" button, that I'm interpreting
as wifi on/off button. Other than that there doesn't seem to be any
"bluetooth" or related button.
As for:
# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 004 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Bus 001 Device 003: ID 138a:0018 Validity Sensors, Inc.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 064e:e258 Suyin Corp.
"Validity Sensors" seems to be the fingerprint reader and "Suyin Corp."
seems to be the laptop camera.
I wrote Matthew Garrett the hp_wmi author, but haven heard back. I'm not
sure, maybe I shouldn't contact him directly or maybe he's just busy or
on holidays currently.
If anybody can point out to me what direction to take from here I'd be
very glad.
Thanks,
