The GUI bluetooth dialog keeps searching for devices but doesn't find anything, while at the same time it shows "enable bluetooth to edit name" implying bluetooth is disabled.
I'm showing the commands you would want to run below, but it boils down to this:
Code: Select all
$ bluetoothctl show
No default controller available
The verbose parts:
Code: Select all
$ dmesg | grep -i blue
