I don't know where I put the physical manual, but I did download the PDF
version from HP's website. It has more pictures than explanatory text,
and of course it blithely assumes we'll use Windows, but it says:
Wireless button
Turns the wireless feature on or off, but does not create a
wireless connection.
NOTE: A wireless network must be set up in order to establish a
wireless connection.
...
Wireless light
Blue: An integrated wireless device, such as a wireless local
area network (WLAN) device and/or a Bluetooth® device, is turned
on.
Amber: All wireless devices are turned off.
That's it. They don't say anything else about it, and what they do say
doesn't seem to apply to Debian. Pushing the button doesn't seem to
have any effect, and the light seems to be blue most of the time, even
when the connection wasn't working, and amber sometimes even while I'm
connected. Sometimes I need to RTFM, but I don't think this is one. :)
