    Bluetooth not working

    So my built in bluetooth adapter is not working in ubuntu 11.10. The indicator icon says bluetooth is enabled, but under bluetooth preferences it says it's not. Also hcitool says that there are no bluetooth devices. bluetooth card is a broadcom something (don't know specifically because lspci doesn't show it)

    please help

    Re: Bluetooth not working

    would suspect NO or IMPROPER driver set

    check your hardware configuration

    sudo lshw -c network

    if under capabilities: the driver doesn't exisit or doesn't match. Reinstall driver set
