** Summary changed:
- Bluetooth doesn't work
+ Some bluetooth dongles don't work anymore
** Description changed:
- I upgraded from Hardy x64 to Intrepid x64 a few days back. After upgrade
- bluetooth doesn't work. No icon in the tray, nothing. After restarting
- the bluetooth service with /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart the icon pops
- up, but it's a complete dud. Cannot set my computers bluetooth-name,
- can't pair devices, can't send or receive files. Nothing.
+ This is a hardware support regression between Hardy and Intrepid
+
+ == Regression details ==
+ Discovered in version: Intrepid
+ Last known good version: Hardy
+
+ == Affected chips/dongles ==
+ 0a5c:200a Broadcom Corp. Bluetooth dongle
+ 2001:f111 D-Link Corp. [hex] DBT-122 Bluetooth adapter
+ 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)
+
+ == Known workaround ==
+ none (besides using Ubuntu Hardy)
+
+ == Description ==

This is what's logged in daemon.log:

lsusb lists the device as:
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0a5c:200a Broadcom Corp. Bluetooth dongle
How do I check if a driver is loaded for it? lsmod | grep blue gives me:
bluetooth 70820 28 bnep,sco,rfcomm,l2cap,btusb
but that doesn't change even if I yank the dongle from my computer.
I have the latest updates to Intrepid applied.
