RF hardware kill switch blocks wifi, bluetooth and suspend
I just hit the following, apparently rather old problem:

">http://linuxtrap.wordpress.com/2009/11/25/hard-blocked-wireless-kill-switch-on-dell-laptop.If hw kill switch is on, apparently because the blocked bluetooth interface cannot be broad to sleep, my Dell XPS 13 refuses to sleep.
The solution described at linked page with re-loading module dell_laptop works for me.
I am running Ubuntu 13.04 with kernel
3.11.0-031100rc3-generic (recommended for making backlight controll working)
Rebooting with another (true Ubuntu 13.04) kernel does not help.
Since problem is old, perhaps this is a regression?
No Events found!
