This is how I solved it.
As the tile says, I cant get my laptop to show any bluetooth devices. It just keeps searching for devices, yet it never finds any.
I typed in:
/etc/init.d/bluetooth status
And it shows me this:
Code: Select all
● bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
