I can use the GUI connection without problems, and bluetoothctl also works correctly in user space as long as the GUI keeps the device connected. it looks like a permissions issue user@george:/dev$ ls -tl | head # after boot in text mode, wireless card on total 0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 2 aug 14 11:59 ptmx crw------- 1 root root 5, 1 aug 14 11:57 console crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 1 aug 14 11:57 tty1 crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 6 aug 14 11:57 tty6 crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 5 aug 14 11:57 tty5 crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 4 aug 14 11:57 tty4 crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 3 aug 14 11:57 tty3 crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 2 aug 14 11:57 tty2 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 3 aug 14 11:57 sda3 user@george:/dev$ ls -tl | head # after startx total 0 drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 80 aug 14 12:01 shm crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 2 aug 14 12:01 ptmx crw------- 1 user tty 4, 1 aug 14 12:01 tty1 crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 0 aug 14 12:00 tty crw------- 1 root root 5, 1 aug 14 11:57 console crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 6 aug 14 11:57 tty6 crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 5 aug 14 11:57 tty5 crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 4 aug 14 11:57 tty4 crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 3 aug 14 11:57 tty3 user@george:/dev$ ls -tl | head # connected total 0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 2 aug 14 12:06 ptmx crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 216, 0 aug 14 12:04 rfcomm0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 3760 aug 14 12:04 char drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 120 aug 14 12:04 shm crw------- 1 user tty 4, 1 aug 14 12:01 tty1 crw-rw-rw- 1 root tty 5, 0 aug 14 12:00 tty crw------- 1 root root 5, 1 aug 14 11:57 console crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 6 aug 14 11:57 tty6 crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 5 aug 14 11:57 tty5 --- ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.10 Architecture: i386 CurrentDesktop: XFCE DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-01-16 (210 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release i386 (20160719) InterestingModules: rfcomm bnep btusb bluetooth MachineType: TOSHIBA Satellite A80 Package: bluez 5.37-0ubuntu5 PackageArchitecture: i386 PccardctlIdent: Socket 0: no product info available PccardctlStatus: Socket 0: no card ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-91-generic root=UUID=c661e78f-3377-4661-b1a4-35f168e682ed ro text consoleblank=300 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-91.114-generic 4.4.76 Tags: xenial Uname: Linux 4.4.0-91-generic i686 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin netdev plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 10/25/2006 dmi.bios.vendor: TOSHIBA dmi.bios.version: V2.80 dmi.board.name: EAT10/EAT20 dmi.board.vendor: TOSHIBA dmi.board.version: Null dmi.chassis.asset.tag: * dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: TOSHIBA dmi.chassis.version: N/A dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnTOSHIBA:bvrV2.80:bd10/25/2006:svnTOSHIBA:pnSatelliteA80:pvrPSA80L-03U003:rvnTOSHIBA:rnEAT10/EAT20:rvrNull:cvnTOSHIBA:ct10:cvrN/A: dmi.product.name: Satellite A80 dmi.product.version: PSA80L-03U003 dmi.sys.vendor: TOSHIBA hciconfig: hci0: Type: BR/EDR Bus: USB BD Address: 00:03:7A:21:C0:53 ACL MTU: 192:8 SCO MTU: 64:8 UP RUNNING PSCAN RX bytes:8854 acl:44 sco:0 events:105 errors:0 TX bytes:1598 acl:36 sco:0 commands:44 errors:0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1710601/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
