Comment 32 for bug 1762385

I still get this error in Cosmic on a Dell M6500.

The M6500 does not have a keyboard RFKILL shortcut - in only has a physical switch. That switch correctly enables/disables WiFi.

Is this the same bug?

Dec 18 09:04:28 localhost kernel: [ 2706.037527] dell_wmi: Unknown key with type 0x0011 and code 0xffd0 pressed

Note that I never use the Fn-keys, so I have no idea which key(s) it would be complaining about.

Here is the output from using the physical switch:
