I can not turn bluetooth off from the applet anymore

[Facundo Batista]

Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth

The applet lost, in Maverick, the option to turn bluetooth off.

I need it to stop it using battery (but also want to keep wifi working, so don't want to turn off all the networks).

Note that Lucid *had* the option, and in Maverick is not longer there.

This seems to be fixed now; a couple of weeks ago one of the updates restored the missing functionality.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the stable release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed. You can find out more about it at http://www.ubuntu.com/download . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.
