DELL D420 With DELL Wireless 350

I have a DELL D420 laptop and it has an built-in Dell Wireless 350 Bluetooth module, and from the windows version I suspect that is some kind of a Toshiba fork. I got wireless working great, but ubuntu won't detect my bluetooth module, I have read on other web pages that it is no problem. I think this is connected to that you can disable or enable the module by hand in Windows. The switch on the side of the computer does not seem to work, and reseting the BIOS config to default settings didn't do the trick either.

Can you recommend anyway to turn on the bluetooth module on my computer ? I am going completely nuts because I really like my bluetooth mouse.

This is my lsusb output, I can't be sure which one it is.
