Bluetooth [Solved]

[mxuserdude]

I've got no Bluetooth icon appearing anywhere and nothing opens when I click any Bluetooth menu option. I've installed blueman and all dependancies

Showing info about your bluetooth

Code: Select all

hciconfig -a

Can you paste the output of that in code tags? Like so:

[code] paste output here [/code]

Hopefully that should give those in the know enough info.

Meanwhile, your qsi shows no wireless devices. Just ethernet.

What does this show?

Code: Select all

rfkill

[j2mcgreg]

Which motherboard did you purchase? The MAG B550M MORTAR or the MAG B550M MORTAR WIFI? If you purchased the former, you are going to have to purchase a WIFI card in order to get Bluetooth. Edited to add: If you purchased the latter, you should return it to the store because the built-in wifi module clearly isn't operable.

[mxuserdude]

oh the non WIFI, my bad

[Huckleberry Finn]

... Also you may consider to use usb devices .

As the starter of the thread, you can (and please) mark it like this:

FWIW, I think that you should search your local marketplace for something like this internal card:

USB network cards are more readily available these days but they have the disadvantage that the USB connection slot becomes another possible point of failure.

Im hoping this orico usb dongle will sort the issue.
