Subject: unable to unblock Bluetooth

Message-ID: <51F3CEF7.4030200@sourcepole.ch> (raw)

Hello

I am not able to unblock Bluetooth:

# rfkill unblock all
# rfkill list 4
4: hp-bluetooth: Bluetooth
         Soft blocked: yes
         Hard blocked: no

The Bluetooth layer remains "Soft blocked".

My system looks like this:

- Linux: 3.11-rc1
- Userspace: Debian wheezy
- rfkill: 0.5
- HW: HP dv7 6130ez
- Bluetooth probably provided by:
  # lspci
  ...
  0d:00.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. RT5390
 [802.11 b/g/n 1T1R G-band PCI Express Single Chip]

Kernel logs show no trace of a problem:

  Bluetooth: Core ver 2.16
  Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized
  Bluetooth: HCI socket layer initialized
  Bluetooth: L2CAP socket layer initialized
  Bluetooth: SCO socket layer initialized
  Bluetooth: RFCOMM TTY layer initialized
  Bluetooth: RFCOMM socket layer initialized
  Bluetooth: RFCOMM ver 1.11
  Bluetooth: BNEP (Ethernet Emulation) ver 1.3
  Bluetooth: BNEP filters: protocol multicast
  Bluetooth: BNEP socket layer initialized

I had to provide some firware in order for the Bluetooth device to show
up in rfkill. I copied those firmware blobs over from Debian's
"firmware-ralink" package. It must be one of these:

rt2661.bin

Additional possibly useful info:

  # lsmod |grep blue
  bluetooth             169854  10 bnep,rfcomm
  rfkill                 19242  6 cfg80211,hp_wmi,bluetooth
  crc16                  12343  2 ext4,bluetooth

What can I do to unblock the Bluetooth?

Thank you,
*t
