Pilot6 over 7 yearsPossible duplicate of Bluetooth Broadcom 43142 isn't working on ubuntu
-
Prakash P over 7 years@Pilot6 Please check output of lspci -knn | grep Net -A2
-
Pilot6 over 7 yearsIt looks like this device is not in the kernel yet. Please add output of
usb-devices
. I need to identify the BT adapter. Then I will be able to fix it. I do not really need the full output. You can cut only devices 2 to 4. -
Pilot6 over 7 yearsI suspect it is the Foxconn.

Pilot6 over 7 yearsI do not need

Prakash P over 7 years@Pilot6 please check output of
usb-devices

Pilot6 over 7 yearsIt is weird. Do you type that manually? I see different numbers. Is it
0459:e112 Foxconn / Hon Hai
or0489:e112 Foxconn / Hon Hai
? -
Prakash P over 7 years@Pilot6 please see output of
usb-devices | awk '/0459/' RS

Pilot6 over 7 yearsIt is weird too. Is it
0459
, or0489
? It should be same inlsusb
andusb-devices
. -
Prakash P over 7 years@Pilot6 its long editing. Their can be typo. Please ignore it.
-
Pilot6 over 7 yearsPlease do not type it manually. Copy text from terminal and paste it here. You can remove incorrect output of
lsusb
. It is important. -
Pilot6 over 7 yearsAnd both your
usb-devices
have different IDs and serial numbers. Are they from one computer? -
Prakash P over 7 years@Pilot6 Sure. Thaks for ur assistance. What is be the probable fault.
-
Pilot6 over 7 yearsI will tell you after you post a reliable output. Now it looks like crap.
