Arch can't find my bluetooth controller, as documented in my last post about it here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=174694 (That was 3 weeks ago, so I'm making a new post now.) Basically, I have the hardware (Bluetooth works in other OSs), but Arch has no idea.
After some more searching, I finally found someone with the same problem on AskUbuntu, with a potential solution: http://askubuntu.com/questions/225208/b … n-bcm43228 However, I'm not really sure what's going on there.
* How can I find out the specifics about what hardware I have?
* And how do I interpret the output of usb-devices, below? The AskUbuntu thread says a couple of times "here's a key line", but I don't know how to recognize the key lines in my own outputs.
* How similar is my setup to the one on the AskUbuntu thread? Can I apply the solutions there to my own machine?
* That post is a year old. Has the patch the answerer mentioned been implemented into the linux kernel yet? (And am I be using a version of the kernel with that patch?)
* I'm not really excited about patching and compiling a kernel myself. Is there another way?

Some information about my machine: When I made the old post, I was running the stock linux kernel. Since then, (in a failed attempt to fix a wifi problem, now solved), I installed the linux-ck kernel patch. However, I'm getting the same outputs for everything as I was 3 weeks ago.

The bluetooth daemon is running, and I have all necessary packages installed (as shown at the end of the older post).

Hello,
I may answer a bit late here but someone managed to help me on IRC while I was having the exact same problem. I don't think that it's needed to patch your Kernel since Arch provides the very last updated. The problem has gone from my side installing the `bluez-hid2hci` package then rebooting the computer. Hoping it can help you!
Have a nice day.
