Bug Description
As you can see the Broadcom BCM20702A0 chipset is reconized but the firmware is missing. I have seen other bug reports that say the firmware issues is fixed in the 3.2 kernel and I have the 3.5 kernel.
Retail product name is Targus Bluetooth 4.0 Dual -Mode Micro USB Adapter.
See these bug reports which say the problem is fixed, but not for me. Is this a regression in the kernel.
