[Bug 1516580] [NEW] Bluetooth firmware for dell xps 13

 

Public bug reported:

STEPS:
1. Install 16.04 current on dell xps 13
2. Try connecting a bluetooth device.


EXPECTED:
I expect devices to just connect

ACTUAL:
I had to follow a guide here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dell_XPS_13_(2015) to enable the firmware however it looks like the dell driver pack may include a .deb file for it.  From Dell xps13_A08.fish.tar.gz contains a bluetooth firmware patch too by the look of things.

** Affects: linux-firmware (Ubuntu)
     Importance: High
         Status: New

** Changed in: linux-firmware (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => High
