Thinkpad x200 Bluetooth configuration on Slackware
 
I'm having a problem with my thinkpad x200 bluetooth running slackware x86 14.1. It says no adapter found. How to solve this issue?
Thank you

Start with the basics.

Open a konsole, run the command 'hciconfig -a' as root user. If your adapter on your system is active, you will get several lines of output. It is probably name hci0 as the first bluetooth device.

If you get no results, check to see if the bluetooth is started. Look at /etc/rc.d/rc.bluetooth and see if it is executable. If not, then 'chmod +x rc.bluetooth' as root user. Then the command '/etc/rc.d/rc.bluetooth start' should fire it up.

If you run the command 'ps aux | grep bluetooth' you should see bluetoothd running.

Did you do a full install? If not, you may have missing packages to run bluetooth.

Start there, post your results.
