Comment 30 for bug 45021

I have Toshiba Satellite P200D-12O and I have the same problem since Ubuntu 8.04. I bought this machine on 2008 and first thing I did was format the hard disk and remove Microsoft Windows Vista. I've installed Ubuntu but couldn't use function keys, bluetooth, card reader, etc. And I had too many problems with graphics card, sound drivers, monitor. I wasn't able to use HDMI at the beginning. (Still have problems with HDMI)
I spent days on the internet to find some solution.
sudo modprobe toshiba_acpi couldn't find toshiba hardware on my machine.
I switched back to Windows XP and found some drivers on the internet. I was using Windows 7 lately. Before that I used every release of Ubuntu as soon as it released without any luck.
Then I found omnibook. I've installed it on Karmic Koala and my bluetooth started working.
I did a fresh install a month ago, now updated to Lucid Beta 2. I still have bluetooth problem. If I boot on Windows 7 and then boot on Ubuntu, bluetooth starts working. If ubuntu crashes or if application hangs and I turn it off with hard switch, bluetooth gets disabled.
System identifies bluetooth if it's turned on internally but it's not able to turn it on, if it's off. I know that wireless and bluetooth have both hard and soft switches. Somehow Bluetooth stack for Windows is able to turn it on and off. Omnibook was doing it lately.
I've downloaded omnibook and will try to install it again on Lucid Lynx.
