[Aditya <code.aditya@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have not yet given up hope.. I am trying to do the bisection, but
everytime I get into the situation of not being able to boot the kernel.
For someone who hasn't done anything like this before; building the
kernels and bisecting it to get hold of the bad commit is a pretty
daunting task indeed. Any it takes upwards to 2.5hours to build the
kernel on my system.

So, I am still doing the bisection as and when possible and would report
things in due course.

However, is it possible to provide more parameters to `git bisect start`
in order to cut down the number of bisections required in this case; as
mentioned over here:

https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-
bisect.html#_cutting_down_bisection_by_giving_more_parameters_to_bisect_start

Title:
  0a12:0001 Bluetooth Dongle (Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd) doesn't work
  after upgrading to Saucy

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After upgrading to Saucy, the bluetooth-indicator was no longer
  present in the taskbar. If I go to System Settings >> Bluetooth; it
  shows as "Bluetooth is disabled" and toggling the On|Off Switch
  doesn't enable it: http://i.stack.imgur.com/vwfEo.png

  I have installed the Blueman Device Manager to solve this issue and
  its bluetooth indicator is shown on the taskbar, but it doesn't
  function. However, toggling the On|Off switch in System Settings >>
  Bluetooth, grays out the icon of Blueman indicator in the taskbar.

  To debug the issue, I am following the instructions mentioned at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection. I have downloaded and installed the kernals from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/saucy/+source/linux:
  - 3.9.0-7.15 works for me
  - 3.10.0-0.6 doesn't work

  For further commit bisecting, I have downloaded the git repository of
  `ubuntu-saucy` by running: git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
  /ubuntu-saucy.git

  To see how many commits are there in between, I run the following command:
  git log --oneline Ubuntu-3.9.0-7.15..Ubuntu-3.10.0-0.6 | wc
