Sled 11 SP2 bluetooth

Recently I bought HP ProBook 4540s with pre-installed SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11. Before I started using operating system I have updated the system. Now, the bluetooth applet (gnome-bluetooth) doesn’t have an option to turn off bluetooth. In the documentation there is an option Turn Off but it doesn’t exist on my system.
Tried to disable it using terminal but I don’t know how to install rfkill utility.

Hi
That should be controllable via the laptops function keys, probably the
same button as the wireless by cycling through it? Else the driver is
missing for the bluetooth.

Can you provide the output from;

zypper lr -d

Hi
So looks like the repos are ok, can you confirm the hp_wmi kernel module is installed;

lsmod |grep hp

If it isn’t try (as root user)

modprobe hp_wmi

If you need rfkill, it can be built from the src rpm locally and installed;
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?project=driver%3Awireless&package=rfkill
Else I can copy the rfkill into one of my home projects to build for you.
