Public bug reported: The bluetooth LED does not come on when running Ubuntu on this Dell Latitude D830. It goes on under Windows XP. It flashes briefly when coming from suspend running Ubuntu.
I have seen this with 32-bit 7.10 and 8.04 beta, and 64 bit 8.04 beta with all updates. According to logs and the lighting up on Windows XP it seems like bluetooth actually works, and it is only the LED that does not come on under Ubuntu. (Incidentally, I have the same issue on my D820 although not sure if same bluetooth hardware, tried with dapper to gutsy in 32 and 64 bit modes. I have used bluetooth fine on that computer.) $ dmesg|grep -i blue [ 22.492809] Bluetooth: Core ver 2.11 [ 22.492938] Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized [ 22.492940] Bluetooth: HCI socket layer initialized [ 22.512155] Bluetooth: HCI USB driver ver 2.9 [ 29.244192] Bluetooth: L2CAP ver 2.9 [ 29.244200] Bluetooth: L2CAP socket layer initialized [ 29.399116] Bluetooth: RFCOMM socket layer initialized [ 29.399140] Bluetooth: RFCOMM TTY layer initialized [ 29.399144] Bluetooth: RFCOMM ver 1.8 $ sudo /usr/sbin/dellWirelessCtl --st_bt Radio Status for Bluetooth: Bluetooth supported Bluetooth installed Bluetooth enabled Status Code: 0 ** Affects: acpi-support (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Dell Wireless 360 Bluetooth LED Not Working in Latitude D830 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219089 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
