Bluetooth module Ralink RT3090BC4 doesn't work
WiFi and Bluetooth 3.0 + HS are integrated in a combo module RT3090BC4 from Ralink. My new HP 4320s laptop uses this module and I am not able to set it up properly on Ubuntu 10.4 32bit
The behaviur is strange because the system automatically recognize the bluetooth module and all seems to work correctly but when you try to search some other peripheral nothing happened. No such bluetooth device has been recognized. All the packets are automatically installed: bluez, gnome-bluetooth and libbluetooth3 and seems to work correctly also.
Here I report some investigation to give us a more detailed scenario:

I have repeated this test installing the latest release of bluez (version 4.79) or using the old libbluetooth2 from Ubuntu 8.04 but the result has been exactly the same (by the way the hw enviroment set-up has been checked using win7 also, in that case all it's ok.. sigh). Maybe the RF radio if off??
Thanks in advance
Flavio
