Fedora bluetooth question


Hello,

I have a Dell XPS 1640, and I am unable to use my Bluetooth receiver. The fedora bluetooth software installs, but there is no adapter present.

Can someone help me troubleshoot this?

dmesg:
Code:
[  252.744218] Bluetooth: Core ver 2.15
[  252.744247] NET: Registered protocol family 31
[  252.744264] Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized
[  252.744267] Bluetooth: HCI socket layer initialized
[  255.938416] TCP lp registered

Does Bluetooth work under Windows? I am assuming you have checked to make sure the Bluetooth device is enabled in BIOS?

It is pretty uncommon for a Bluetooth device to not be supported under Linux, and I don't see anything listed under lspci.

Bluetooth works under windows. And it is enabled in the bios. But, Fedora doesn't allow me to turn on Bluetooth,.. and aside from Bluetooth being enabled in the kernel and dmesg showing it,.. I don't see any signs of it erroring or anything like that,.
