The bug is not resolved for me. I had the custom firmware linked in this post installed on my computer. When kernel 3.19.0-26 came along, I could not boot and saw errors in the console from hid_init_xxx about retval being 19 instead of 18.
I deinstalled the custom linux-firmware and installed linux- firmware=1.143.3 from the repo. I could boot, but bluetooth didn't work and in the logs I saw error messages about firmware ar3k/AthrBT_0x11020100.dfu missing. So I downloaded the two missing firmware files from this bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1394368 and put them to /lib/firmware. I could not boot again because of the same error from hid_init_xxx about retval being 19 instead of 18. My assumption so far is that the latest linux-firmware=1.143.3 still doesn't include AthrBT_0x11020100.dfu and with that package system at least boots. However when this file is present, the kernel 3.19.0-26 doesn't boot. Neither boots the kernel 4.2.0-rc8. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1462614 Title: Atheros bluetooth [0489:e076] doesn't find the devices Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux-lts-utopic package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Vivid: Fix Released Status in linux-firmware source package in Vivid: New Status in linux-lts-utopic source package in Vivid: Invalid Bug description: I have a laptop Acer v15 with Qualcom Atheros bluetooth and Logitech M557 mouse, which worked well initially.
