Question Bluetooth not working


Good day to everyone,

Bluetooth on my Lenovo IdeaPad Z580A seems to initialize well (see dmesg output below), but gnome-bluetooth applet behaves quite strange: icon and its tooltip shows that bluetooth is disabled, but when left-clicked the context menu claims it's enabled; however, when "Preferences" are clicked, it again claims that Bluetooth is disabled. After clicking a prominent button "Turn on Bluetooth" in the center of "Preferences" window, nothing changes, but the button appears disabled (font greys). And, of course, i cannot find the laptop when searching from a cell phone.

Adding the user to the group "dialout", as suggested in /usr/share/doc/bluez-utils/README.Debian.gz, does not help.

As i can see from windows (installed alongside), the bluetooth is managed by Broadcom device, and i know that WiFi is also managed by some Broadcom device (see lspci). As only one device appears, i assume that both WiFi and Bluetooth are controlled by it. I have found some thread where some wise man claimed that NM is to be blamed for it, but there questionig user resolved his problem by bying a dongle. So i do not know actual solution to my problem (as i am afraid to remove NM ).

Debian 6.0.5, 3.2.0-0.bpo.3-amd64 kernel.

Part of the dmesg output (i hope the rest part is not needed (still not used to using touchpad to copy-paste), this is in the least part of dmesg output):

See the following, re replacing the open source driver with the vendor driver:
http://wiki.debian.org/wl

Also see a post in the following link:
http://www.mindwerks.net/2011/11/wir...12-3-2-kernel/

Quote:

in /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf. in /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf.
The post is about 2/3 down the page...

Unhappy Not succeeded, unfortunately.

At first, thank you for your desire to help!
I have tried to build the proprietary driver module with m-a, but it failed to do this and returned error 2; errors started where .ndo_set_multicast_list was requested and not found...
Code:
/usr/src/modules/broadcom-sta/amd64/src/wl/sys/wl_linux.c:219: error:
 unknown field ‘ndo_set_multicast_list’ in the initializator
(mayby not exactly so, i translated bash messages as my locale is Russian).

So i tried to install the patch from the second link you have given me - but this also failed with error messages:
Code:
patching file src/wl/sys/wl_linux.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 332.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file src/wl/sys/wl_linux.c.rej
And this file contains essentially nothing except two lines "/dev/null" and the text of the patch of its own.
Code:
*** /dev/null
--- /dev/null
***************
*** 332
-       .ndo_set_multicast_list = wl_set_multicast_list,
--- 332 -----
+       .ndo_set_rx_mode = wl_set_multicast_list,
Eventually, editing /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf as described in the link you advised me does not help, too...

So what should i do now? Thanks in advance again.

OK, I realized it was maybe implied to execute the "patch" command in /usr/src/modules/broadcom-sta/amd64. Then the following is displayed:

Code:
patching file src/wl/sys/wl_linux.c
Hunk #1 succeeded at 219 (offset -113 lines).
However, it does not resolve the problem with m-odule-assistant. Here is complete output from it:

Code:

make: *** [kdist_build] Error 2
And when I check manually, the line 219 is:

Code:
.ndo_set_rx_mode = wl_set_multicast_list,
But the line 332 (which, as I understand, is being patched) contains nothing at all. Here is that patch:

Code:
332c332
< 	.ndo_set_multicast_list = wl_set_multicast_list,
---
> 	.ndo_set_rx_mode = wl_set_multicast_list,
So what to do now? I know I probably am an idiot, but could somebody help that idiot, please?

Following some advice in #! forum, I have installed packages from "testing" Debian repository (m-a did not comply and all the rest ran smoothly). Now I can suppose the Broadcom device is managed better (as I now see wireless networks of two my neighbours ), but the bluetooth problem persists.

Also, "GNOME Network" shows some inactive "unknown interface" pan0. Maybe in my case Bluetooth device is misrecognized as net interface by some part of device management software? How can I check that? Thanks in advance.
Okay, I googled and found that pan0 is normally assigned for Bluetooth So where could the root of the problem be?..

Here is some info from cat /var/log/daemon.log | grep bluetooth:

Code:
Oct 22 06:27:13 esmu-dators1 bluetoothd[1517]: Bluetooth deamon 4.66
Oct 22 06:27:13 esmu-dators1 bluetoothd[1517]: Starting SDP server
Oct 22 06:27:13 esmu-dators1 bluetoothd[1517]: Starting experimental netlink support
Oct 22 06:27:13 esmu-dators1 bluetoothd[1517]: Failed to find Bluetooth netlink family
Oct 22 06:27:13 esmu-dators1 bluetoothd[1517]: Failed to init netlink plugin
Oct 22 06:27:13 esmu-dators1 bluetoothd[1517]: bridge pan0 created
And bluetooth-agent says when invoked:

Code:
Can't get default adapter
No such adapter
Output from # hcitool dev:
Code:
Devices:
Output from # lsmod | grep blue
Code:
bluetooth             122093  10 bnep,rfcomm
rfkill                 18970  4 bluetooth,ideapad_laptop
crc16                  12343  2 bluetooth,ext4
Output from # ps -e | grep blue
Code:
 1644 ?        00:00:00 bluetoothd
 2400 ?        00:00:00 bluetooth-apple

Any ideas would be appreciated...
