[SOLVED] Bluetooth not detecting all devices Linux Mint 21

Post by weto93 »

Hello everyone,

this is the first time I am writing here. So if anything is not as wished, please let me know.

Anyway, since my upgrade from Linux Mint 20.3 to Linux Mint 21 I am not able to connect my bluetooth keyboard.
In LM20.3, there never was an issue, but right now the Bluetooth Manager is not detecting the keyboard.

I already tried solutions suggested in other topics here, but I couldn't get it running.

Here is the ouput for

Maybe the bluetuith app will work better:
viewtopic.php?p=2241180#p2241180

Or, turn power management off via Terminal:
sudo sed -i 's/3/2/' /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/*

Good luck.

Bluetuith app did the trick for me! Thank you very much!
I wonder why it is not working out of the box, though...

Nevertheless, I set this topic to solved. Thank you, Joe2Shoe!
