Tests related to Bluetooth: https://askubuntu.com/questions/641892/hcitool-scan-does-not-find-my- bluetooth-device
According to this article, the command hcitool dev should need to deliver a list of Bluetooth devices. I get this non-result - though I have been using Bluetooth at the same laptop, when it ran on Kubuntu 22.04.4. LTS: bas@Camino:~$ hcitool dev Devices: bas@Camino:~$ bas@Camino:~$ hcitool -i hci1 scan Invalid device: No such device bas@Camino:~$ sudo hcitool scan [sudo] password for bas: Device is not available: No such device WIFI and Bluetooth related tests based at this article: https://askubuntu.com/questions/474219/wifi-is-hard-locked bas@Camino:~$ rfkill unblock all bas@Camino:~$ (Apparently, nothing happens.) bas@Camino:~$ rfkill list all 0: tpacpi_bluetooth_sw: Bluetooth Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes 1: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes bas@Camino:~$ The keyboard key combination FN and F5 at my Lenovo Thinkpad X230 should need to switch on and switch off WIFI.

Notes: If you want to use Fn+F5 to enable or disable the wireless features, the following device drivers must be installed on the computer beforehand: • Power Management Driver • On Screen Display Utility • Wireless device drivers Question - is there a way to get such drivers and to get them working at Kubuntu 24.04 LTS? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1325028/wifi-gets-hard-blocked-on- ubuntu-20-04-2-hp-15-series bas@Camino:~$ sudo rfkill unblock 0 [sudo] password for bas: bas@Camino:~$ rfkill list 0: tpacpi_bluetooth_sw: Bluetooth Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes 1: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes bas@Camino:~$ bas@Camino:~$ sudo rfkill unblock all [sudo] password for bas: bas@Camino:~$ sudo update-initramfs -u update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.8.0-31-generic bas@Camino:~$ rfkill list 0: tpacpi_bluetooth_sw: Bluetooth Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes 1: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes bas@Camino:~$ https://askubuntu.com/questions/1436900/wi-fi-and-bluetooth-got-hardblocked-after-upgrading-xubuntu-from-22-04-to-22-1 bas@Camino:~$ rfkill list all 0: tpacpi_bluetooth_sw: Bluetooth Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes 1: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes bas@Camino:~$ Test after removing and reinserting battery: bas@Camino:~$ sudo rfkill list all [sudo] password for bas: 0: tpacpi_bluetooth_sw: Bluetooth Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes 1: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes bas@Camino:~$ SUMMARY SO FAR: WIFI and Bluetooth works at Kubuntu 22.04.4. LTS. However, it does not at Kubuntu 24.04 LTS. I have been using both LTS systems at exactly the same laptop with the same BIOS settings. Software and hardware system info ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Operating System: Kubuntu 24.04 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.11 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0 Qt Version: 5.15.13 Kernel Version: 6.8.0-31-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i5-3320M CPU @ 2.60GHz Memory: 3,5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 4000 Manufacturer: LENOVO Product Name: 2325AZ8 System Version: ThinkPad X230 WHAT TO DO NEXT TO GET BACK WIFI AND Bluetooth? =========================== Apparently, both WIFI and Bluetooth got hard blocked after a fresh install of Kubuntu 24.04 LTS at my laptop. Kubuntu 22.04.4. was a fresh install of early April, at the same laptop, with the same BIOS settings. In the BIOS, there is no password or security lock. It's simply default stuff. I have no clue what to do next. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2065074 Title: Cannot enable WIFI & Bluethooth at fresh install of Kubuntu 24.04 LTS. «Hard blocks» or something else?
