Bug Description
Binary package hint: udev
if ndiswrapper module is loaded, udev does not modprobe modules on new hardware. E.g. for bluetooth usb module and btusb module:
-Without ndiswrapper module:
KERNEL[
KERNEL[
KERNEL[
UDEV [1287997561.979899] add /devices/
KERNEL[
UDEV [1287997562.026826] add /devices/

UDEV [1287997562.056204] add /devices/
UDEV [1287997562.062486] add /module/btusb (module)
UDEV [1287997562.072507] add /bus/usb/
UDEV [1287997562.130043] add /devices/
UDEV [1287997562.132964] add /devices/
UDEV [1287997562.135728] change /devices/
KERNEL[
UDEV [1287997562.161538] add /devices/
Then I plug the device out, do modprobe -r btusb; modprobe ndiswrapper and plug the device in again:
KERNEL[
KERNEL[
UDEV [1287997508.783877] add /devices/
UDEV [1287997508.790956] add /devices/
KERNEL[
UDEV [1287997508.809122] add /devices/
That's all I get. If I modprobe -r ndiswrapper and btusb and re-insert the bluetooth dongle again, all needed modules are loaded automatically.
The install is a default ubuntu 10.04 with latest updates. I have no restricted drivers installe (save for ndiswrapper). The bug may be hardware-related as I can't reproduce it on another PC with ubuntu 10.04.

i see this too on HP 510 laptop.
this started roughly a month ago, probably after an update. most recent updates do not fix the problem
