Bluetooth fails to enable
Hi i apologise in advance for being new to Ubuntu.
I have recently installed Ubuntu 11.10 onto my netbook Toshiba NB550D.
the issues i am having are with the bluetooth and wireless. The bluetooth drivers appears to have installed correctly but the bluetooth doesn't work at all, the bluetooth is part of the wireless adapter as it is a "combo card" (Atheros AR9002WB-1NG Wireless Network Adapter) . when i try to enable bluetooth the system lags then comes right but the bluetooth still says "bluetooth is disabled" i can apparently turn bluetooth on and off from the system tray icon but this does nothing.
I was wondering what is causing this and how to fix it.
Thanks
