I've tried a few more things in the kernel and still nothing, as if there is |
| 25 |
no bluetooth device there: |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
$ hcitool inq |
| 28 |
Inquiring ... |
| 29 |
Inquiry failed.: No such device |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
$ hcitool scan |
| 32 |
Device is not available: No such device |

I read that the above message means that something is blocking the card. That |
| 36 |
blocking would not be hardware, because rfkill only shows the wireless card: |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
# rfkill list |
| 39 |
0: phy0: Wireless LAN |
| 40 |
Soft blocked: no |
| 41 |
Hard blocked: no |

I tried a Knoppix DVD and it shows an additional device: |

machine. |

| 110 |

| 111 |
370 Bluetooth Mini-card! What the ... !? |
