I just bought a Bluetooth dongle for my laptop with fedora on it and cannot get the Bluetooth service to start. Tried to do the same on my imac running Fedora and the same thing happened, it said service refreshing and never did.

I have searched through this forum and the web and it seems that the problem has something to do with my TV Card. But I can't remove the card because it is a part of my Graphic Card which is an "ATI Radeon 8500DV All In Wonder". I can start the machine with Lubuntu Live CD, and so I thought that maybe I can change a value in a file from installed Lubuntu through Live session that makes the Bluetooth Service disabled at startup.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been unable to use Bluetooth since I did a clean install of 10.10. It worked before, so I know I have the hardware.
The default manager has a button to turn on bluetooth, but it doesn't do anything. I downloaded Blueman but get a message that "Bluez daemon is not running, blue-man manager cannot continue."
I've tried a few different inquiries, but I'm not sure what they mean:

So I have been trying to connect my Wiimote up to my PC using the following HOWTO: [URL]... I had it working last week and for some reason it has now stopped working. I am using a USB Bluetooth dongle and I am sure that it is still working because I can connect the Wiimote up to my laptop no problem. What I have noticed is that on my Laptop the bluetooth icon is highlighted and on my PC although the Icon is there it is greyed out. When I go to preferences and click on turn on Bluetooth the button greys out for a while and then comes back saying "Turn Bluetooth on" again.

I have Ubuntu 10.04 LTS installed on a Dell Desktop with a USB Bluetooth dongle.
I have a bluetooth device, whose security is based upon searching not for the bluetooth service name but a renamed bluetooth service. The device comes with instructions on how to do it with a small subset of Windows XP machines but I feel like this should be a simple thing to do here.
Is there a simple way to either add an extra bluetooth service on a different name? Change the current bluetooth name? Ubuntu has a wiki that led me to the bluetooth preferences window and a services tab but that doesn't seem to exist in 10.04.
where to go in GUI or command line tools that will help with this?

The bluetooth manager does not detect a bluetooth dongle .trying to use ndiswrapper to fix.I installed device manager and the results are shown below.i downloaded the windows driver suite. It has 4 .exe self extracting driver archives and a setupconfig.ini. The .ini file is below.I was able to extract one of the 32bit archives on a windows machine and it had about 8 .inf files that are titled weird and would not install properly using ndiswrapper probably because im using the 64-bit architecture. there are 2 64bit .exe's in the driver download, but how can i extract them in ubuntu and do i really need to install all 8 .inf files. also do i actually need to make a .inf file? if so how?

Bluetooth works perfect, when I boot lucid using live CD, So I guess there is some problem with the installation. I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.4. It never worked with 9.10 and its continuing the same way.
After a restart, I see bluetooth icon, but its grey all the time. Two more screen shots..

So, after installing Lucid wireless doesn't work for me. When I click on the network icon on the status bar, it shows "wireless is disabled".
With that message, I press the wifi button on my HP laptop and it turns off my blue-tooth, without changing the status of my wifi.
I found this rfkill command in another thread:

I am using opensuse 11.3 64 Bit Gnome. The problem is the network manager & the bluetooth icon takes unnecessarily long time to load (2-3mins) & until it loads I cannot connect to the internet.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have used USB and/or built-in wireless broadband devices that the system detected (I assume) and set up the software appropriately at install time. I have a netbook and after setting everything up, I later added a bluetooth dongle which it uses easily. I was able to connect to my phone without trouble... or at least it appears to. In the network manager applet, there are only two connection types available. Wired and wireless. On my laptop with built-in wireless broadband, there is a 3rd option for wireless broadband.
How do I enable this option in this case? I have installed any and all packages I imagine could be relevant including wvdial and all that. I have restarted Network Manager and even the whole machine numerous times. When right-clicking on NetworkManager and doing "Edit Connections" I am able to manually add an entry for mobile broadband, but it is never accessible in any way.
I had a lot of problems at first working this one out. So I made a program to create the bluetooth com port.
1. Download and install the program sjdsoftbt-tool from my website[url] or directly here *sjdsoftbt-tool*
It was made in gambas 2.0 but it should install the required dependencies automaticly .
2. Follow the instruction on my How to Guide this covers most phones and there pit falls and problems you can have.
It appears that the problem of Bluetooth which I suffer of them in version 12 is still in version 13, where I've upgraded and there are still problem. Bluetooth was working version 12 (before update). I was hoping that the problem is resolved version 13 but still problem I've had:
Bluetooth is connected to usb , but the computer does not recognize
Click on the button enable
Dolphin does not currently browse bluetooth devices, and they are not automatically mounted or seen as potentially mountable. [As an interesting aside, I ran into a snag pairing my phone: I can initiate pairing for the first time, with pin and all, from the phone, but I cannot initiate such pairing from the computer. This behavior is identical under KDE and Gnome. Does anyone have a clue why? Both devices were bluetooth visible, so that isn't the problem.]
However, it is still possible to browse bluetooth devices, provided they have been paired, by executing obexfs -b <bluetooth address> <user-writeable mount point>. Unmounting is done through fusermount -u <mountpoint>. Now it seems to me to be very easy to extend Dolphin's functionality (and the device detecting/mounting application) to include the above behavior automatically. Case in point, Nautilus has no problem doing all that.
So, I'd like to file a bug report and prod the appropriate instances, but given that google searches on this issue bring up mostly old pages, I wonder whether anyone know whether (a) this is a KDEBluetooth issue, (b) a Dolphin issue, (c) a Fedora packaging issue, (d) other (please specify).
i am kinda new to fedora. just installed 14 on my hp mini 5102. trying to get bluetooth to work and cannot figure out how. it has built in BT.

The problem is with Bluetooth connectivity to my cell phone device. It connects to the cell phone and set trusted but I can't seem to see any option of "Browse files on Device". Does that mean in KDE I actually can not browse my Bluetooth connected devices?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAfter an update to fedora 10, I cannot access my bluetooth printer any more.
I used to run hcitool to discover the printer, which still works
Code:
In the printer configuration, I used to enter a URL like this Printer URL bluetooth://000CF606C08A/
Note, the "bluetooth" protocol is not offered any more in printer setup.
I read that Fedora 10 comes with an updated BlueZ 4 package, which has an improved gnome applet.

The applet discovers the printer, but fails pairing with the device. There seems to be short flash up of a pincode error message (which I cant read).
