bluetooth doesnt seem active on HP L2000


hey,i'm trying to get my bluetooth cell phone (Nokia 6265i) to connect to my laptop but it doesnt seem active at all.

when I try to run "hcitools scan" I get "Device is not available: No such device"

"lsmod | grep hci" returns

sdhci 14848 0
mmc_core 30104 1 sdhci
ehci_hcd 34184 0
ohci1394 35124 0
ieee1394 299832 2 sbp2,ohci1394
ohci_hcd 21892 0
usbcore 130692 5 ndiswrapper,usbhid,ehci_hcd,ohci_hcd


my bluetooth was found when I was playing around with OpenSuSE 10.1 a while back.

I have gnome-bluetooth, bluez-utils and obexserver installed.

TIA

Did you try using KBluetoothD package. That's what'installed in suse 10 and 10.1 and it works for me.
