Yes it has been tested on 3.18  and it's still not working

but I'm not surprised as the realtek support has not been pushed in
mainline kernel and I doubt that Ubuntu kernel devs would patch that
sort of thing.

What would be the right procedure then ? Push the fix to upstream ? We
have everything ready on the github mentionned above.

For now I've created an alpha state DKMS from this github :

https://github.com/EkimiaSAS/rtl8723au_bt/tree/dkms

Which results in a dkms deb but which does not include the firmware.

http://support.ekimia.fr/drivers/Bluetooth/rtl8x/

Also this DKMS overwrite the current btusb which quite dangerous ....

Does the ubuntu project  distribute  dkms drivers even when they are
opensource ?

For now it's the right thing to do it seems.
