Just did a little mroe careful testing, wasn't paying close enough attention to hot/cold resets. After a cold reset, neither Windows or Linux can power up dongle. So I suppose this is not a software question. Nevertheless, has anyone had this problem, know of a maybe firmware,BIOS,or other fix?

I am using Belkin bluetooth USB Dongle F8T003 v2.11 with Linux kernel 2.6.12-rc3 and an Asus A7N8X-X motherboard. When I turn off the power on my computer I usually have to remove and reinsert the dongle to get the dongle to power on again (blue light flashing, showing up in lsusb). I can do this at any point during boot-up, even during the GRUB boot-loader screen. Occasionally the dongle does power on by itself when I turn the computer back on. Warm resets do not have the same effect: the dongle never loses power. Is there anything I can do from Linux to get the dongle to power on if it is off without removing and reinserting it. I am pretty sure but not 100% that Windows has a way of doing this as I haven't had the problem yet with the dongle and Windows.
