The reason why it works in Ubuntu with kernel 2.6.38 is because they patched their kernel: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/720949 https://launchpadlibrarian.net/68723624/0002-UBUNTU-SAUCE-Revert-Bluetooth-Add-new-PID-for-Athero.patch I also saw this patch also in a Gentoo forum: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-887112-view-previous.html?sid=46739f74e3419eb7efee8b0b1cb98ce0 Apparently there is an upstream bug report: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27402 But that is down right now, because kernel.org is down. Perhaps this patch could be applied to Debian's kernel? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
