Since the patch is ignored upstream, I made a ppa with a patched ideapad-laptop module.
It can be installed by sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hanipouspilot/ideapad-laptop sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install ideapad-laptop-dkms Note for 14.04 users: The package is made for Ubuntu 14.04.2 with 3.16 kernel. It fepends on linux-generic-lts-utopic Of anyone wants to use 3.19 kernel, install packet for vivid. And remind me to update ppa, when 14.04.3 is released. But I hope that someone from Canonical pushes the patch upstream. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-lts-utopic in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1397021 Title: [LENOVO G50-30] Rfkill always reports wireless blocked Status in linux-lts-utopic package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: [LENOVO G50-30] Rfkill always reports wireless blocked ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: linux-image-3.16.0-25-generic 3.16.0-25.33~14.04.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.16.0-25.33~14.04.2-generic 3.16.7 Uname: Linux 3.16.0-25-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Thu Nov 27 18:45:27 2014 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-11-27 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140417) SourcePackage: linux-lts-utopic UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-lts-utopic/+bug/1397021/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
