No dev with DSE bluetooth dongle

Hi All,

I have found an old DSE bluetooth dongle I am trying to use and when I do a "hcitool dev" no devices show up.

lsusb shows:

Bus 006 Device 003: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)
 

both dbus and bluetooth are running, lsmod shows:

Re: No dev with DSE bluetooth dongle

Have a look in dmesg for relevant messages.

Yep, had done that, nothing relevant ..

I think it is the dongles though ... I did find one that would work ... so go figure.
