[Bug 495930] Re: Cambridge Silicon Radio Bluetooth Dongle gives permanent Connection timed out with Ubuntu 9.10

[yoghurt_lx]

Continuing of my self conversation.....

Found out that changing only the package bluez from version 4.570ubuntu1
to version 4.32-0ubuntu4 is enough to make it work in that case.

How to:
Go to http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/bluez, select your Architecture (amd64 or i386) and download the package.
Open the Synaptic package administration, search for bluez and remove bluez there.
Removing bluez will also remove other packages, notice that because you have to reinstall them later.
After removing bluez close the Synaptic (only one instance can run) and install the downloaded package (bluez 4.32-0ubuntu4)
A double click in the folder where you downloaded the package bluez_4.32-0ubuntu4_i386.deb starts the Debian package installer and ignore the warning that a newer version is available.
Now open and reinstall in the Synaptic package administration all other packages which got former uninstalled with bluez.

Thats fairly easy once you know it and can even be done by someone without much knowledge.
Nevertheless, it would be fine to have a fix for that. Can't be that hard to compare this versions to see why this Dongle stopped working.
Well, maybe I start with that on my own too when I see the activity here which remembers me of a cemetery.
