Bluetooth adapter not recognised

model: VPCF11M1E
Ubuntu Lucid 10.4

linux-backports-modules-alsa-lucid-generic is installed to fix audio.

Wireless is on, which I believe is also the bluetooth switch.

Bizarre. After a m/c crash over the weekend, bluetooth appeared all on its own.

For ref, I now have:

Hi, I have recently installed ubuntu on my Vaio. I used the live-cd to install 
and have noticed that, at this point, the bluetooth device works flawless. The 
device disappears just after installing the nvidia driver. 

I truly don't know how to help any further but I suppose that investigating the 
configurations using the Ubuntu live-cd would be a nice idea. I can perform any 
tests you may ask.

Regards

Hi,

As far as I'm concerned, I use a Debian Linux unstable with a 2.6.34 kernel.
