If you've rebooted, get to the point where lspcmcia shows the device and lsmod shows hci_uart
Then try:
hcitool dev
Have a look at /etc/default/bluetooth
(yell if it's missing)
Set BLUETOOTH_ENABLED=1
ignore the rest for now.
Then try:
/etc/init.d/bluetooth start
and try:
hcitool dev
and
hcitool scan
again.
Did all that, everything was as it should be, but the last two commands still insist that no device exists.
Running lspcmcia just after booting shows the device just as I quoted above.
I emailed the person who posted
this, and he responded to me. According to him, nothing needs to be done. For him (and he has the exact same card), he just needs to insert the card, the OS detects it automatically, and he's good to go.
Maybe it's my laptop...
*edit*
...Does it tell you anything if the boot process for Ubuntu takes about 5-7 minutes? I get a black screen for all that time, then the login screens. If this means anything (like hardware support failure?), is there a way to get a boot log that someone here could read for me?
