Hi John, I can't see anything wrong in your dmesg output. Does the system tray on your desktop have a "blueman-applet" ? If it doesn't try: $ blueman-applet Then from the applets drop down menu try some of the options... Bluetooth on/off Make discoverable Setup new device... Devices... Adapters... etc. cheers, Ian.
