HP Presario CQ57 Bluetooth not working

linuxno0b · 03-18-2012, 10:52 AM

Hi there, I have HP Compaq laptop Presario CQ57. I have latest and updated PCLinuxOS and after few days reading and googling I manage to setup everything except one thing- my bluetooth. I am totally new to linux and despite that fact I setup all things to work ^^

I installed all bluez, blueman and such thing drivers, activate bluetooth from windows7 and KDE bluettoth tool says: No bluetooth adapters have been found. Blueman says: BlueZ daemon is not running blue-man manager cannot continue.

I have fn key for wifi and it is in blue light (it is working). In bios there is no such option for bluetooth. Actually there is nothing interest to make in this laptop bios, only booting order.

I'm waiting for your answers here, because i try everything i find in this forum and in google and there is no hope from me now to get this bluetooth working in pclinuxos.

Code:

I looked through the output you posted. I do not see your Bluetooth adapter. In dmesg, I see the driver loaded, here:

lspci does not show an adapter, nor does lsusb. I looked at the specs HP post for a CQ57-300 ( there are other - models ). HP does not list a Bluetooth adapter with the system. Have you added one? If so, where have you added it? USB dongle ? Added it internally?

The hardware has to show up, before you can get it to run.

linuxno0b · 03-19-2012, 12:40 PM

It worked in windows 7 here is a screenshot. Dont mind language, it is ibulgarian. Says the bluetooth is working and ye it is workning under win7. Dont know why linux doesnt recognize it. I try 5-6 different distribution before pclinuxos and in all of them i do not have bluetooth working. And it is built in laptop I dont add it manually like usb..etc

camorri · 03-19-2012, 01:20 PM

Two posts to look at.

First -->https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=770233

Second -->https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=133093&p=1

I don't think you will get this working on PCLinuxOS any day soon. There are known problems with this adapter. Most of this can be traced back to Broadcom not being a friendly linux hardware manufacturer.

Support is coming, I can not tell you when. This adapter is in lots of systems as well as the one you have.

If you look at the second link, about post 35, to the end, they get the adapter to work on Arch linux. It requires a script to load firmware, firmware, and a kernel patch. Not trivial. If you stick with PCLinuxOS, you might try asking when support will come for that distro. I have no idea.

As I see it, run your bluetooth on windoze for now. Or, you can go out and buy a $15 bluetooth dongle and use it in linux. That is what I have, works like a charm.

linuxno0b · 03-19-2012, 02:02 PM

Thank you for this explanation. I'm pretty new to linux and wanted to know why this bluetooth isnt working on my linux. I find now why and thank you for that very much. Now i can continue enjoy and learn my linux without to worry why the hell this or that is not working
