Thanks Pat, there's only the "lighthouse" button, that I'm interpreting
as wifi on/off button. Other than that there doesn't seem to be any
"bluetooth" or related button.

As for:
# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 004 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 138a:0018 Validity Sensors, Inc.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 064e:e258 Suyin Corp.

"Validity Sensors" seems to be the fingerprint reader and "Suyin Corp."
seems to be the laptop camera.

I wrote Matthew Garrett the hp_wmi author, but haven heard back. I'm not
sure, maybe I shouldn't contact him directly or maybe he's just busy or
on holidays currently.

If anybody can point out to me what direction to take from here I'd be
very glad.

Thanks,
