View Full Version : [SOLVED] Bluetooth under Lucid Lynx?

I have tried out Lucid Lynx Beta 1 back in march. During the installation I was announced that support for bluetooth was dropped. I installed anyway, thinking it would be back in the Final Release. Meanwhile (between March and April) I reinstalled Karmic because I really needed the bluetooth. I can see in the upgrade that bluetooth still isn't available. What should I do about this? Is there a way to keep Lucid Lynx and bluetooth? Or will I have to stay on Karmic until the end of times?

Thanks for your precious help guys! :)

Dropped? There is a bluetooth configuration under system->preferences.

Bluetooth works fine for me on Lucid. Actually it works better than any previous release.

When I tried Beta 1 in March, it didn't, and now, I get the same message about "no support" than last time. Check the picture in the attachments to see what I mean. If you're positive that it's there in Lucid though, I might as well upgrade. Anyone can confirm that I won't lose bluetooth, because downgrades are hard.

Thanks again

Burn a cd or usb drive and try it without installing.
