But when i first turn on my laptop in windows 7 (i have a dualboot) then close Windows 7 and restart (not shut off) but restart in Ubuntu 12.04 or 14.04 my bluetooth adapter works fine.. When i then again shut off and turn back on my laptop the problem persists... nspiron-3521:/usr/share/doc/bluez/examples$ dmesg|tail [ 87.518217] cfg80211: Disabling freq 6060 MHz [ 87.518219] cfg80211: Disabling freq 6080 MHz [ 87.518225] cfg80211: Regulatory domain changed to country: NL [ 87.518226] cfg80211: (start_freq - end_freq @ bandwidth), (max_antenna_gain, max_eirp) [ 87.518229] cfg80211: (2402000 KHz - 2482000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm) [ 87.518231] cfg80211: (5170000 KHz - 5250000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm) [ 87.518233] cfg80211: (5250000 KHz - 5330000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm) [ 87.518235] cfg80211: (5490000 KHz - 5710000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (N/A, 2700 mBm) [ 88.317514] eth1: IPv6 duplicate address fe80::fa2f:a8ff:fecf:9607 detected!
