Public bug reported:
I have applied the workaround of bug 1070770, running bluetoothd under
valgrind to prevent it from crashing. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7/UsingTheDevice#Stabilizing_the_Bluetooth_stack
After successfully connecting my Bluetooth keyboard I tried to connect
with a Bluetooth printer, the Photosmart Premium C309g-m. To do so, the
"bluetooth" CUPS backend needs to detect the printer. On a standard
Intel-based computer I get
till at till:~$ /usr/lib/cups/backend/bluetooth
direct bluetooth://002655096A9C "Photosmart Premium C309g-m" "Photosmart Premium C309g-m (Bluetooth)"
till at till:~$
On the Nexus 7 the same call of the bluetooth backend does not show any
answer and never exits, probably hanging during the communication with
the printer.
Using the bluez-tools on the Nexus 7 I get:
ubuntu at nexus7-pyongyangs:~$ bt-adapter -d

The error message of the second command only showed up after waiting
some seconds.
