Public bug reported: When running Gutsy on my ASUS F3Ka laptop, the built-in bluetooth device is not recognized and the bluetooth led is dark.
On Hardy, the LED is turned on upon startup, but: 1. The device doesn't seem to uppear anywhere in the hardware listings (lspci, lshal, lshw). 2. No modules from /lib/modules/2.6.24-10-generic/kernel/drivers/bluetooth are loaded automatically. Loading 'em all by hand does nothing. 3. I can turn the LED on and off with these commands: sudo su -c "echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/bluetooth" sudo su -c "echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/bluetooth" ^ But these commands only switch the led state, and they don't seem to affect the system in any way - there're no new messages in dmesg, /var/log/messages or /var/log/acpid when running these... By the way, the laptop is detected properly by the asus_laptop module: $ dmesg | grep asus-laptop [ 36.038635] asus-laptop: Asus Laptop Support version 0.42 [ 36.039052] asus-laptop: F3Ka model detected ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Bluetooth not working on an ASUS laptop (but the led is OK) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197556 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
