title: Bluetooth blocked through rfkill
body: <blockquote>
    <p>rfkill list 1</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>command gives me:</p>
  
  <pre><code>1: ideapad_bluetooth: Bluetooth
  Soft blocked: no
  Hard blocked: no
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, when I run the following command,</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>sudo systemctl status bluetooth.service</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I get this error:</p>

  <p>I use Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS. When I start bluetooth, it searches for the devices, but it never finishes.</p>
