Post by _p7003ky_ »

I ugraded my HP620 Notebook from LMDE5 to LMDE6. Everything is fine so far with one Exception: NO BLUETOOTH -It worked with LMDE5

This maybe a hint for me: viewtopic.php?t=405305 but i dont want to mess up my system doing things i do not understand. My admin-skills are quite limited. What to do ? THNX

Now, that i am thinking about it... i'm only ~50% sure, that Bluetooth worked on LMDE5... hmm... better leave this assumption aside...

I also noticed this:

(ähm... i really do not know what i am doing... what is modprobe for? :)... have to read and learn)
