My TOSHIBA Satellite A100 has a built-in Bluetooth device (so I suppose this must be a PCI hw), and the wireless adapter has an external switch to turn on/off. The problem is that no device is found in "hcitool dev". I dont find anything related to Bluetooth in lspci. It sometimes works fine when I restart the system for ten times, but other times I can't get it to work, no matter how many times I restart the bluetooth services or turn it off and on. There seem to be no problem in Windows XP. I also get no result from hciconfig, however these following lines are present in dmesg when the system starts up
