Description Fred Blaise 2008-06-27 18:17:44 UTC
Created attachment 224901 [details]
commands output

I have a Lenovo t61p, and a fresh opensuse 11 install.

The lights for wifi and bluetooth are off, but wifi works (theres already a bug for the wifi light). Wifi works fine, but no bluetooth device are seen at all.

I am attaching my lspci, lshal, dmesg and hwinfo.

Please let me know if i can provide more info.

Thanks.

Could you attach here output from "hcitool scan" executed when any visible bluetooth device is around?
Comment 2 Fred Blaise 2008-07-06 10:25:21 UTC
fblaise@pollux:~> sudo hcitool scan
Device is not available: No such device

Problem is that should see its own bluetooth device before seeing others. By saying it sees "no device at all", I am talking about its own hardware.

Is bluetooth on the T61 also a USB device (as on the T43)? If so, it is not being found at all.

What does

# cat /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth 

report?

Fred,
If the bluetooth light is off, then bluetooth is not activated on your machine. The WIFI led will only flash every so often when there's traffic coming through.

Problem is that FN+F5 does not work after you boot, so, in the boot menu, hit FN+F5 to enable bluetooth, then try again, or;

echo enable >/proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth

linux-2ztj:/home/mboman # cat /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth 
status:		enabled
commands:	enable, disable

I don't know what it is...

fblaise@pollux:~> cat /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth 
status:		disabled
commands:	enable, disable

Pressing Fn-f5 doesn't make the values change.

Well... I pressed Fn-F5 to no effect, then i put the laptop to s2d... when brought back to life, the light was lit, bluetooth enabled...

If I now press Fn-F5 again, light doesn't go off... Seems the action is taken for the next reboot somehow...
