Toggling Bluetooth in IBM/Lenovo Thinkpads

Toggling the Bluetooth device on/off is very easy on IBM/Lenovo Thinkpads

$cat /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth
status: disabled
commands: enable, disable
The following commands active and deactivate bluetooth.

$echo "enable" > /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth

$echo "disable" > /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth

This works for both Fedora and Ubuntu.
