Disabling Auto Enable Bluetooth

Question

I use a 13.04 system. Whenever the system boots up, the Bluetooth button is by default ON..Every time i have to manually disable it.Is there any way to disable this?

Look in your BIOS, see if you can disable that way. – Mitch May 30 '13 at 17:29 — Mitch, May 30 '13 at 17:29

To disable it on boot, you'll need to edit this file:

sudo vim /etc/bluetooth/main.conf

And set InitiallyPowered to false

InitiallyPowered = false

Disable Bluetooth on startup

Source : Is there a power saving application similar to Jupiter?

 sudo nano /etc/rc.local

And add the following line before exit 0

 rfkill block bluetooth

Save & Exit & Reboot

Your bluetooth is off on startup but you can enable it from bluetooth icon.
