[SOLVED] Bluetooth not working in ThinkPad E470

Hello, I did a fresh Arch install a few days ago, and never got the Bluetooth adapter to work. Strangely enough, it seems to be detected without issues and the btusb driver seems to be properly loaded, however it never appears in the list (accessing it via KDE's settings panel), with the message "No adapters found". What gives?

Relevant output of lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 net; dmesg | egrep -i 'iwl|ath':

I appreciate any help; let me know if there is any other relevant info you want me to post here.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I tried both r8169 and r8168 modules, and I have acpi_rev_override kernel parameter turned on, to no avail.

Check your BIOS settings, make sure bluetooth is enabled. If so, check dmesg for bluetooth messages/errors.

Re: [SOLVED] Bluetooth not working in ThinkPad E470

Did you enable the bluetooth.service ? Also check with rfkill that it isn't being blocked.
