okubax: what type of USB hardware do you have? What's the output of: lsusb | grep Blue
(If you don't trust me about that command, here's what it does: - lsusb - lists all usb devices found on your system - grep Blue - takes that listing and only displays those entries that contain the word Blue) ** Description changed: This is a hardware support regression between Hardy and Intrepid == Regression details == Discovered in version: Intrepid Last known good version: Hardy == Affected chips/dongles == 0a5c:200a Broadcom Corp. Bluetooth dongle 2001:f111 D-Link Corp. [hex] DBT-122 Bluetooth adapter 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode) + 1131:1001 Integrated System Solution Corp. KY-BT100 Bluetooth Adapter == Known workaround == none (besides using Ubuntu Hardy) == Description == I upgraded from Hardy x64 to Intrepid x64 a few days back. After upgrade bluetooth doesn't work. No icon in the tray, nothing. After restarting the bluetooth service with /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart the icon pops up, but it's a complete dud. Cannot set my computers bluetooth-name, can't pair devices, can't send or receive files. Nothing. This is what's logged in daemon.log: Oct 27 13:37:22 superbeast bluetoothd[14641]: Bluetooth daemon Oct 27 13:37:22 superbeast bluetoothd[14641]: Starting SDP server Oct 27 13:37:22 superbeast bluetoothd[14641]: Starting experimental netlink support Oct 27 13:37:22 superbeast bluetoothd[14641]: Failed to find Bluetooth netlink family Oct 27 13:37:22 superbeast bluetoothd[14641]: Can't init plugin /usr/lib/bluetooth/plugins/netlink.so Oct 27 13:37:22 superbeast bluetoothd[14641]: bridge pan0 created Oct 27 13:37:22 superbeast bluetoothd[14641]: HCI dev 0 registered Oct 27 13:37:22 superbeast bluetoothd[14641]: HCI dev 0 already up Oct 27 13:37:27 superbeast bluetoothd[14641]: Can't read version info for /org/bluez/hci0: Connection timed out (110) Oct 27 13:37:27 superbeast bluetoothd[14641]: Starting security manager 0 Oct 27 13:37:32 superbeast bluetoothd[14648]: Can't set link policy on hci0: Connection timed out (110) lsusb lists the device as: Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0a5c:200a Broadcom Corp. Bluetooth dongle How do I check if a driver is loaded for it? lsmod | grep blue gives me: bluetooth 70820 28 bnep,sco,rfcomm,l2cap,btusb but that doesn't change even if I yank the dongle from my computer. I have the latest updates to Intrepid applied. -- Some bluetooth dongles don't work anymore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/289836 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
