Public bug reported: I am running bionic and the gnome-control-center on the bluetooth tab tells me that "no bluetooth found" and that I should plug in a dongle to use bluetooth. My computer has built-in bluetooth.
I believe I am seeing what's being discussed at http://gnome- apps.13852.n7.nabble.com/No-Bluetooth-Found-Plug-in-a-dongle-to-use- Bluetooth-td68467.html especially the message by Bjørn Forsman, dated Dec 31 2016. $ ll /dev/rfkill crw-rw-r--+ 1 root root 10, 62 Mai 29 17:19 /dev/rfkill $ bluetoothctl [NEW] Controller 3C:77:E6:EC:91:4E work [default] [NEW] Device 20:A9:0E:1B:1B:84 alcatel POP 4 Agent registered [bluetooth]# show Controller 3C:77:E6:EC:91:4E (public) Name: work Alias: work Class: 0x0010010c Powered: yes Discoverable: yes Pairable: yes UUID: Generic Attribute Profile (00001801-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb) UUID: A/V Remote Control (0000110e-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb) UUID: OBEX File Transfer (00001106-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb) UUID: Generic Access Profile (00001800-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb) UUID: OBEX Object Push (00001105-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb) UUID: PnP Information (00001200-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb) UUID: IrMC Sync (00001104-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb) UUID: A/V Remote Control Target (0000110c-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb) UUID: Vendor specific (00005005-0000-1000-8000-0002ee000001) UUID: Message Notification Se..
