Hi everybody!
Can anybody help me with getting bluetooth to work on ASUS F3Ka please?
Here is the dmesg output:
[n0ne@darkstar ~]$ dmesg | grep Blue
Bluetooth: Core ver 2.11
Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized
Bluetooth: HCI socket layer initialized
Bluetooth: L2CAP ver 2.9
Bluetooth: L2CAP socket layer initialized
Bluetooth: HIDP (Human Interface Emulation) ver 1.2
I've got bluetooth daemon in my DAEMONS array in /etc/rc.conf
BUT it still doesn't work:
[n0ne@darkstar ~]$ sudo -s
[root@darkstar ~]# hcitool inq
Inquiring ...
Inquiry failed.: No such device
Any ideas, please?

in some cases, you may need to run "sudo hid2hci" if your devices are running in hci mode..thats how it was on my macbook.

try restarting bluetooth after log in... sudo /etc/rc.d/bluetooth restart then hcitool scan

some stuff ive noticed with laptops and bluetooth...
- bluetooth/wireless works in a lenovo i recently installed ubuntu in only after I suspend to ram. This is due to some weird Radio kill switch bug
- sometimes leaving bluetooth and wireless turned on on wiindows has its effects in linux, because windows drivers sometimes do not release control of the hardware. So try a cold boot, and if that doesn't work, a reboot from windows...'
- try variants of leaving the bluetooth switch on/off during the boot process
none of these actually seem like logical solutions, but thats how bluetooth/wireless and linux sometimes is..good luck!

Thanks a lot! Turning on bluetooth on Windows and doing the reboot gave me success!
