Binary package hint: bluez-gnome
I just got a new laptop and Bluetooth does not work at all, not even after installing the BT firmware files from Bluez's website. The bluez-gnome applet is installed and it is told to be discoverable, and yet none of my devices can query my Feisty laptop. And when I tried from the command line "hcitool inq" it timed out!! The bluetooth service is up and running btw without errors! It is very weird, but as it stands right now, I can't use Bluetooth at all.
Here is what lsusb gives me:
