some more information: Bluetooth only appears being off in the indicator and the settings. It is, in fact on and working just fine.
This screenshot was taken while a Bluetooth keyboard was connected and functional: http://i.imgur.com/EIUnG9n.png Note the hciconfig output in the terminal. It shows that it is up and running, and even doing the inquiry as instructed by the systemsettings app. It's just that the app and indicator think its off. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-bluetooth in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1530807 Title: Bluetooth cannot be activated.
