Running "lshw" on the terminal got me started. I looked up the lines and found an unclaimed hardware device which is my bluetooth RALINK RT3290. Started searching from the forums and one pointed to install rtbth-dkms driver from launchpad.
So i obeyed and added blaze repo (https://launchpad.net/~blaze/+archive/ubuntu/rtbth-dkms)
//this two lines will add the blaze rtbth-dkms repository
//on the system and update it along the way
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:blaze/rtbth-dkms sudo apt-get update
Next step is to install it:
//install bluetooth driver
sudo apt-get install rtbth-dkms
Next step is to reboot your laptop and start the bluetooth once you got in. The instructions are listed here.
# Init sudo modprobe rtbth sudo rfkill unblock bluetooth hcitool dev # check # Switch off sudo rfkill block bluetooth # Switch on sudo rfkill unblock bluetooth # Shutdown sudo pkill -2 rtbt sudo rmmod rtbth
Once done your bluetooth device will be recognized and claimed by the driver.
Then I paired up my little bluetooth speaker and happily enjoying wireless music! Thanks to blaze for the bluetooth repo.
