how to reactivate airplane/ wifi hotkey Ubuntu 18












0















The physical button to dis-/enable wifi/flight mode no longer works. It controlled both wifi and bluetooth antennae, but neither of them anymore. I can control them via screen, so its not the rfkill thing Im after.



I was on Ubuntu 16 (where it did work), and upgraded straight to 18. Then the trouble started. Afterwards, I tried a fresh 18 install. Still occurs. Does anyone know how to fix this? Ive read into some threads, but nothing helpful.



Possible interesting info:
{02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wireless 7265 [8086:095a] (rev 50)
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 [8086:5010]
Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi
Kernel modules: iwlwifi
}
