[Bug 268502] Re: Bluetooth doesn't work (hci_cmd_task: hci0 command tx timeout)

[Adrian]

I am running jaunty 9.04  2.6.28-15 with bluez 4.42 and still having issues.
tryied with several kernel ranging from 2.6.27-11 , 2.6.28-11 and 2.6.29.6 with bluez 4.32 and bluez 4.42 having the same results.
Sometimes the dongle is well recognized and can pair, and transfer files, some other times not.
restarting bluetooth (/etc/init.d/bluetooth restart) removing btusb, starting bluetooth again and then insterting the module again seems to work but again, just sometimes.

I've read that there is an actual fix, it seems to be a btusb issue, how
can i go back to the previous driver, just by recompiling manuall
another kernel?

The configuration that i have now is:
