Hi Jim and Colin, well my laptop only has one light on it and it
represents both the bluetooth and the wireless light so its own, just not
on when I check the bluetooth symbol in ubuntu.  For some reason its
grayed out, I was thinking it might be due to the fact that I might have
to run a command in terminal to figure out how to turn on bluetooth.  What
are the bluetooth commands in terminal?
