Comment 15 for bug 816145

Denva: Can you give the output of 'rfkill list' when you get the situation with the USB adapter?

Teej: It would be most helpful to have the rfkill list output pasted in rather than typed from memory, just to ensure that there aren't any mistakes.

What it looks like at this point is that hp_wmi receives events from the BIOS that it thinks are telling it that some kind of blocks have been applied to the wireless. Exactly why that is happening is unclear at this point.
