which UI are you using? bluez-gnome? could you check blueman and gnome-bluetooth in karmic?

[max (mikhmv)]

both don't work.
gnome-bluetooth: when press button turn off don't do anything. In next time when open menu "turn off" button still available.

Blueman: after turn off change state of icon. and make enable button for turn on but device really don't change state. It is every time turn on.

P.S. Pressing fn-F5 button can change between states:
1. bluetooth - off, Wifi off
2. bluetooth - on, Wifi on.

one or two months ago it had 4 states:
1. bluetooth - off, Wifi off
2. bluetooth - on, Wifi on.
3. bluetooth - off, Wifi on
4. bluetooth - on, Wifi off.

After reboot it is every time ON.

there was a rfkill switch fix in 2.27.99. i assume this fixes this particular bug for you too. If not, reopen this bug.

what laptop are you using?

[max (mikhmv)]

I tried this on 2 notebooks:
Lenovo T500 and HP tx2500.
Result is same, after reboot bluetooth ON every-time.

What about before reboot? Is bluetooth working if you turn it off before rebooting?
