So on your 901 the BT behaves similarly to wlan. I want that too :) > Maybe you're using another BIOS firmware? Same as yours, 1101 (the 901 came with it, I didn't flash anything). Are you, by any chance using the eeepc-acpi kernel module? I use the laptop-eeepc one from the kernel package. I ask about this, as I couldn't find the code in laptop-eeepc that is responsible for the creation of the bluetooth control file. There is code about camera, cardreader, wlan and screen (whatever that is), but no bluetooth. Bummer! Another funny thing is that when the bluetooth is disabled in the BIOS, the "control methods" flags still end with 3, meaning bluetooth and wlan supported. -- dam JabberID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
