Public bug reported:
I Got Qosmion F40, with Bios version 1.50 .
My Laptop/Bluetooth is not supported by Omnibook.
And after a clean install, bluetooth was not showing.
What i once noticed that bluetooth icon appeared by itself! And kept
disappearing, i was not able to figure it out,untill now.
If in Ubuntu Bluetooth is not working,i turn the switch Off then restart
to Vista, turn switch on , then enable it from task bar, restart Vista.
At Bios boot,turn switch off ,wait for Ubuntu to load,after login when
everything started, turn the Switch ON , and Bluetooth automatically
starts and the icon appears! I tried sending and receiving , works they
way it supposed to.
this is what HWinfo got me for bluetooth device:
