Need help getting bluetooth working on supported hardware
September 04, 2013 04:22PM
Guys. I'm trying to get bluetooth working on what I think is supported hardware. I've got a Trendnet tbw-101ub usb bluetooth dongle. I've searched and saw postings saying that it works out of the box. I've running installed linux on my Pogoplug Pink device: 

root@debian# uname -a
Linux debian 3.2.0-4-kirkwood #1 Debian 3.2.46-1+deb7u1 armv5tel GNU/Linux

I've installed bluetooth and bluez packages. Here's what I get when I try to get a status: 

root@debian# /etc/init.d/bluetooth status

and here's part of my dmesg output:

I have no idea where to look or where to go next to try and get bluetooth working. Can any of you suggest what I need to do or where to look?
