-----------------------------------------
Though I am already searching for a solution for 6 hours, I coundn't find any valid one.
I installed too many diverse files and run in terminals, that two bluetooth mark exist.

I downloaded bluetooth manager and can on/off bluetooth due to "rtbth_3.9.3-1_amd64.deb" from
http://www.mediafire.com/download/2t59ayhx9fxxfoh/rtbth-3.9.3-patched.7z

Last solution looks like work, but pairing fails.

Bluetooth driver for 14.04 is unavailable yet?

Bluetooth is standard and the driver is in the kernel. You don't need to install anything to get the driver for Bluetooth. You probably have a weird setup that is preventing the hardware being detected but the Bluetooth itself needs no additional effort. I'm betting the system is an Asus. We will see with the command I gave.

I've thought too that bluetooth is standard and it will work without any problem. However, after upgrading to 14.04 LTS, I cannot use bluetooth.

Seems to be some software switch in Windows enables it and is then picked up in Ubuntu when you boot to Ubuntu. Do you dual boot?

No, I don't have Windows OS and I have not installed other OS except Ubuntu. I bought this laptop several days ago, and Ubuntu is set up at first. And I upgrade it to 14.04 LTS using Ubuntu Software Center.
