I just installed ubuntu studio on an old hp pavilion db9000. I got everything working except the built in bluetooth.
I am able to plug a usb bluetooth dongle in it works fine so I am trying to figure out how to get the internal bluetooth to work.
I have installed ubuntu studio:
$ uname -a
Linux luke-HP-Pavilion-dv9000-EW680AV-ABA 4.15.0-20-lowlatency #21-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Tue Apr 24 08:11:51 UTC 2018 i686 athlon i686 GNU/Linux
I have never worked with bluetooth on linux before so I am not sure what to post that may help figure out how to fix the problem.
The bluetooth is a broadcom bcm 2045. Ran some commands I found on trouble shooting but not sure what it all means. What else should I add to help identify the problem.
$lsmod | grep bluetooth

The device appears to work partially. I started bluetoothctl and was able make the device visable to my phone. If I tried to pair with my phone the phone askes for a pid but the laptop does not tell me the pid. I tried 0000 and 1234 and i get invalid pid.
I tried lookig for device specific drivers for the broadcom and their website says they dont have them and I need to get them from microsoft. I downloadded and extracted a set of windows files and tried installing them with ndiswrapper. The extract has many .inf files and one of them installed but made no difference. I don't have any idea what to do next. Any ideas?
Thanks, Mark.
UPDATE-I was just looking around and the I started to wonder if it had to do with the bluetooth devices I am trying to connect with. The device am an interested in is an adafruit feather blue lte. This is a Low Energy device. Maybe the braodcom 2045 does not support this newer protocol. Any one know?
