You can configure the bluetooth service in your system's config to automatically power up the bluetooth controller. The Guix info manual says: -- Scheme Procedure: bluetooth-service [#:bluez BLUEZ] [#:auto-enable? #f] Return a service that runs the ‘bluetoothd’ daemon, which manages all the Bluetooth devices and provides a number of D-Bus interfaces. When AUTO-ENABLE? is true, the bluetooth controller is powered automatically at boot, which can be useful when using a bluetooth keyboard or mouse. Here's what it looks like in mine: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (services (cons* [...] (bluetooth-service #:auto-enable? #t) [...] --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- In your user-account record you'll also want to add "lp" in the list of supplementary groups, so that your unprivileged user has access to your bluetooth device: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (user-account [...] (supplementary-groups '("lp" ;for bluetooth [...]))) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- HTH, Maxim
