[Bug 1394368] Re: Bluetooth with AR9462 doesn't work (New ID /Firmware)

 

Hi,
same problem here. I tried latest ubuntu with kernel 4.2, didnt work. Then tried previous version, downgrading from 3.19 to 3.16, followed the instruction for 3.16, but now the problem is that bluetooth works only on every other reboot - as described here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1260825 . Any news about the issue or kernel versions where this works?

Michal

  I can't use Bluetooth with my AR9462 WLAN/BT-Combo.
  In the link above, it has been fixed, but not for my Adapter ID/Firmware:

  System:
  Ubuntu 14.10 utopic 64bit - 3.16.0-24-generic x86_64

  lspci -nnk
  02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Qualcomm Atheros AR9462
  Wireless Network Adapter [168c:0034] (rev 01)
   Subsystem: Lite-On Communications Inc Device [11ad:0802]
   Kernel driver in use: ath9k

  lsusb (identified Bluetooth Device)
  Bus 002 Device 003: ID 04ca:300d Lite-On Technology Corp.

  ath9k.conf
  options ath9k btcoex_enable=1

  The "04ca:300d" ID is not in the Kernel, so i added it via dkms.

  I took ath3k.c and btusb.c out of the 3.16.0-24-generic source files
  and changed them:

  sudo dkms build -m ar9462 -v 1.5.1

  (DKMS package in the same style/versioning as in the bug report above)

  dkms status

  Now the new output:

  My patch works, but just like in the bug report above, a Firmware file is missing:
  AthrBT_0x11020100.dfu

  I found it neither in linux-firmware (http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/ar3k)
  nor elsewhere.
