[Bug 1196788] Re: Bluetooth does not work in Ubuntu 12.04.2, AMD AMD® Trinity APU A10-4655M 2.0 GHz

 

Hi Iwaki-san,

Thanks for your advice. This worked for me on Arch linux. However, I had
to modprobe btusb first. Then, the btusb folder appeared under drivers
and I could echo the id.

 modprobe btusb
 echo "13d3 3392" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/btusb/new_id

Title:
  Bluetooth does not work in Ubuntu 12.04.2, AMD AMD® Trinity APU
  A10-4655M 2.0 GHz

Status in “bluez” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In the bluetooth indicator/global menu, options are available to turn 
  it on/off. However, in the bluetooth settings window, it is indicated 
  that bluetooth is disabled and it cannot be turned on.  Furthermore,
  trying to setup a new device returns "No Adapters Found".

  Here is the output of lsusb :

  Here is the output of sudo hcitool dev : 
  Devices : . 

  In windows 8, the bluetooth works flowlessly. If I login Windows 8, 
  keep the bluetooth on before restarting to Ubuntu, the bluetooth 
  is still disabled. 

  In the BIOS/UEFI settings, the bluetooth is enabled.

  Furthermore, the wifi and bluetooth share the same set of keys : 
  Fn + F2. In Windows 8, If i turn on the bluetooth a small dot in the 
  F2 key is lit. In ubuntu pressing, Fn + F2 enables/disables wifi and
  the bluetooth indicator menu swaps between on/off but the bluetooth
  is still really off.

  Side Note : This is a new machine (2013) and I couldn't try the settings
  for Ubuntu 13.04 and 13.10. Installation of Ubuntu 13.04 and 13.10
  resulted to corrupted display. [This will be a different bug.]
