Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - RT3290 - WIFI Working, Bluetooth Not Recognised

Asked by Anurag Srivastava

I have this HP Compaq 15-s008TU Laptop. I downloaded and installed Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

My WIFI is working fine and after logging in, I installed updates over WIFI.

For Bluetooth it says, Bluetooth Adapter not found.

I have followed many related threads online to get BT working but to no avail.

Do we have a RT3290 BT Driver compatible with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS?

Help please!

Have a look online to see if there is a newer version of the firmware

I don't think the bluetooth will ever work as Ralink is not willing to help
