Making Bluetooth work on the U46SV (AR5B195 combo card)

 

Hi all,

Just thought I would share this: The asus U46SV contains a mini pci combo
card which contains both Wifi and bluetooth. WiFi works out of the box but
Bluetooth does not. This is due to the fact that the BT chip is not detected
by the ath3k module. It looks like there is a patch on the way. Until that
makes into the distro kernels the following trick will work:

Insert the following line into your /etc/modprobe.d/local.conf file (if it
does not exist, create it):
install btusb /sbin/modprobe ath3k ; /bin/echo "13d3 3304" >>
/sys/bus/usb/drivers/ath3k/new_id ; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install btusb
