[Bug 483713] [NEW] bluetooth interface not seen (lshw, lsusb, hciconfig) on Dell Inspiron Mini 1011 (=10v)

[Václav Šmilauer]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bluez

I have a Dell Inspiron Mini 1011, with integrated bluetooth interface
(as I assume: that's what the specs say, and there is also switch to
enable it in the BIOS, which is on). I've seen many people reporting
bluetooth functioning out of the box with karmic on Dell Inspiron Mini's
(various models).

The bluetooth device is not known to the system in any way, however:
lshw, lsusb don't show anything pertaining to bluetooth. The rfkill
switch is on (its presence is another indicator that the device is
somewhere).

$ rfkill list
0: compal-wifi: Wireless LAN
	Soft blocked: no
	Hard blocked: no
1: compal-bluetooth: Bluetooth
	Soft blocked: no
	Hard blocked: no

I will be happy to provide additional information if needed. I am
running fully up-to-date karmic with 2.6.31-14 kernel (i386, not lpia).
