Bluetooth-adapters no longer detected?

Unread post by RiotRay »

Hi!

Recently I had to install a new usb-hub-extension board, as my old one went out of order. It was the exact same one and everything worked as expected at first. After a few days my trusty bluetooth adapter stopped working. I checked it on a PC and it worked fine. So I tried several different BT-adapters on mister. Surprisingly none of them is detected by mister anymore...

Otherwise the mister is working fine.

What could be the problem here? I didn't tamper with any drivers or such things...

thx

Plug it in and run

Code: Select all

dmesg|tail -n 10

To see if the device is showing up

I’m not sure if

Code: Select all

lsusb

Is available on MiSTer but if it is it may give you some pertinent information.

If you have trouble seeing lsusb run

Code: Select all

lsusb|less

Or

Code: Select all

lsusb|more

It seems the device is present for mister (Cambridge Silicon Radio BT Dongle), but it won't show in the mister menus and attempting to pair states "no adapter present".
Any ideas?

Are you able to try one connected to an OTG cable instead of the USB hub board?

Update:
This phenomenon vanished after the last mister update.
So it was a software problem after all...
