Hi

I have a Toshiba laptop and for some reason on that particular laptop I'm unable to get bluetooth enabled at startup which was not an issue since I don't use it that often.

After updating to native plugin from gcc plugin, I'm not able to use GUI to enable my bluetooth because the plugin is hidden since it detected that there is no bluetooth on the system. I'm still able to use rfkill to bring back my bluetooth but I would like you to reconsider this "hiding" feature or at least hide the plugin only if there is no bluetooth hardware, not when the bluetooth is soft disabled.

Thank you for your time and effort.

Cheers.

The work isn't done, but the behavior you are describing is of course already taken into account and once the bluetooth adapter/device is found (even if it is disabled), the plug will be shown in Switchboard.
