Re: bluetooth on acer aspire 1810TZ is not recognized

 

hey leho,

here is the output:

   schaalf@spc:~$ sudo rfkill list
   0: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no

   [hit the bluetooth switch]

   schaalf@spc:~$ sudo rfkill list
   0: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no

so i guess this shows, that the rfkillswitch for bluetooth is not detected. can i fix this / manually do this?

thank you!

I am pretty sure your issue is due to the changes in acer-wmi they made in 2.6.38. My Travelmate wants an extra rfkill key press to enable Bluetooth off cold boot. See what "sudo rfkill list" says, then hit your radio on/off keys a few times and see what it says again every time.
