Description Buchan Milne 2012-06-29 14:53:52 CEST
Description of problem:
I upgraded from Mageia 1 to Mageia two a week ago. On Mageia 1, my bluetooth mouse was working well. If I booted up, or resume, I could turn my bluetooth mouse, and it would work without any further actions. bluedevil would show my bluetooth adapter, and various actions were available.

On Mageia 2, the bluedevil status bar icon states 'No bluetooth adapters found', however:

[root@tiger ~]# hciconfig 
hci0:   Type: BR/EDR  Bus: USB
        BD Address: 00:24:7E:5D:9A:80  ACL MTU: 1017:8  SCO MTU: 64:8
        UP RUNNING 
        RX bytes:119650 acl:7226 sco:0 events:212 errors:0
        TX bytes:1381 acl:47 sco:0 commands:58 errors:0


After a suspend, the adapter is down, and I need to manually bring it up, and manually connect to the bluetooth mouse.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bluedevil-1.3-0.rc2.1.mga2

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot and log in to KDE
2. Start bluedevil from the menu
3. Right click on the bluetooth status bar icon, and see it says 'No adapters found'

I did that to work around the problem:
[root@localhost gouessej]# systemctl restart dbus-org.bluez.service

> Julien, you have to have your device UP

Can you elaborate please? What should I do to permit my device to be UP?
Comment 6 Manuel Hiebel 2013-07-03 10:03:11 CEST
hciconfig hci0 up

Thanks. I'll install Mageia Linux 3 and I'll try your command in order to confirm that it really works as expected.

This message is a reminder that Mageia 2 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately one month from now Mageia will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 2. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX (EOL) if it remains open with a Mageia 'version' of '2'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version prior to Mageia 2's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Mageia 2 is end of life.  If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

Mageia 2 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on ''22 November''. Mageia 2 is no
longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or
bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia
please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia
and reopen this bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
