[Bug 802545] [NEW] Bluetooth not working on Acer W500 tablet

[Stuart Metcalfe]

Public bug reported:

On Ubuntu Natty, the bluetooth menu appears in the panel and reports
"Bluetooth: On" but the icon is greyed-out and when I open the
preferences dialog, I am only given the option to "Turn on bluetooth"
with a large button.  Clicking the button doesn't do anything.
