Hi, About a dozen times per day, my Bluetooth mouse stops working. I can't connect manually in Settings > Bluetooth. If I merely turn off the WiFi radio (Settings > Network > Wi-Fi change from On to Off) and then click the mouse button, it reconnects and works normally.
With kernels 4.6 and older this ridiculousness was ridiculously tolerated (in that I continue to use Fedora slightly annoyed rather than use macOS where this problem does not ever occur with the same hardware). But with kernel 4.7rc7 this power cycling of WiFi doesn't work anymore, now I have to reboot. So the question is, does anyone have any idea how to get more details debugging information on what appears to be a conflict between WiFi and Bluetooth? Upstream GNOME bluetooth maintainer says it's a kernel bug. But there's no meaningful kernel messages at all while this is happening. Here's the bug I've filed against the kernel, if anyone has suggestions on improving the report that'd be great. Or heck, maybe a solution to the problem, that'd be even better. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136221 In ancient times, I remember even Apple had problems negotiating WiFi and Bluetooth since I guess both are on 2.4GHz and would conflict with each other. Maybe the work around is to use the proprietary WiFi driver instead of b43. -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
