Post by Ahima »

Hi,

I have a self made desktop pc with dual boot : windows (for game) an linuxmint (everything else ;) )

My bluetooth chipset is only recognize after a reboot from windows !
If i boot directly to linuxmint the bluetooth isn't activated.
The chipset is integrated to the motherboard (same chipset for wifi).
When the bluetooth doesn't work the wifi still work !
Bluetooth adapter is correctly on in bios

motherboard : ROG STRIX Z370-E GAMING
chipset bluetooth and wifi : RTL8822BE
linuxmint : 20.1 Ulyssa
linux kernel : 5.4.0-72-generic

The following commands were made when the bluetooth is not working

Code: Select all

Without some technical information we can’t help you. Please post an inxi -Fxxxzr report. This will give us a concise overview of your hardware and on how Mint sees it.

Here is how to generate the report and post it:

Boot from your installation media (USB/DVD)
Open a terminal window (Ctrl-Alt-t). Make it fullscreen to avoid unneeded linebreaks or chopped lines. Execute the command

Code: Select all

 inxi -Fxxxzr 
exactly as it has been typed here.

Mark the complete text output which the command will display with your mouse.
Press the keyboard shortcut <Shift><Ctrl>C to copy the marked text into the clipboard.
Enclose the results between the code markers by selecting </> from the mini toolbar above the textbox where you type your reply then paste <Ctrl>V them in your reply between the code markers [code]Results [/code].

The results will help us to help you.

My first suggestion would be to make sure Bluetooth is enabled in your Startup Applications.

Of course..... yes.
If you read my first post with many information (including copy past of command... ;) )
my problem is my bluetooth only work when i reboot from windows, not if i directly boot from scratch to linux

When Bluetooth is working, the linked service is obviously activated

I just restarted the system and the bluetooth works, I turned the computer off and on again and it still works.
It seems that the problem only occurs in the morning when the computer has been turned off all night.

Disable Fast StartUp in Windows power options, otherwise Windows may not fully release your PC's resources at shut down.


If you continue to have quirky Bluetooth, disable Secure Boot in the BIOS.

Hi hglee, thanks for reply.

You means disable Fast Boot in the bios ?
Maybe, good idea, it seems possibly related

Disable Fast StartUp in Windows power options, otherwise Windows might not fully release wireless (WiFi and/or Bluetooth) when it shuts down.


Disabling Fast Boot in the BIOS can help to avoid hardware initialization and diagnostic shortcuts at power-up. The system feedback can be useful.

Thanks a lot.

For the past few days, the problem has stopped occurring.
Maybe it's because I got a linux kernel update ?
I keep your advice in case the problem comeback
