Thank you for your answer,
I just tried to make "hciconfig hci0 reset" as you said but it says
that "can't init device hci0. Connection timed out(110)"

in follow what I got on my teminal :

>[root@localhost root]# hciconfig hci0 reset
>Can't init device hci0. Connection timed out(110)
>[root@localhost root]#
>[root@localhost root]# hciconfig
>hci0: Type: USB

>[root@localhost root]#

>Can't init device hci0. Connection timed out(110)
>[root@localhost root]#

What can I do to fix the problem ?

Thanks in advance

Too bad, I have to have this workaround in my local startup script and also in my resume from hibernation script. But lots of people are starting to have this problem so hopefully they will fix it soon.
