Success! .. I backported drivers/bluetooth/bcm203x.c from 2.6.20 to 2.6.18 and recompiled the module within the 2.6.20 source. My BT-120 device is back online in fiesty!
I'll attach a diff here of what I did, it's very straight forward. I still need to test to see if 2.6.21-rc2 or later already addresses this issue. Unfortunately, due to a lack of kernel hacking experience, I'm not sure if I can actually debug Marcel Holtmann's original check-in so that it properly loads the firmware using the correct "work queue" way :) ** Attachment added: "Backport drivers/bluetooth/bcm203x.c from 2.6.20 to 2.6.18" http://librarian.launchpad.net/7058766/bcm203x-2.6.20-backport.diff -- bcm203x firmware will not load https://launchpad.net/bugs/85247 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
