Found on the web: sudo systemctl reload dbus and them sudo systemctl start bluetooth

    pomon
    Tried both commands. The first one gave no errors. The second gave me the same error as before

    Job for bluetooth.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status bluetooth.service" and "journalctl -xeu bluetooth.service" for details.

    Thanks to both you @pomon & @Staudey for your help. I appreciate your time and effort!

    I sense a solution won't be found. Again, thank you both for your help. I'll survive 😆

        xjdwc when you make moves like that always good to reboot. at least try it before you write the whole thing off. 2 cents

            xjdwc I havent kept up on it think some ppl where having issues with bluez
            check make sure its installed (from software center) and some ppl where going back to the previous version
            and having it work.
            (Dunno just info)

                Yeah I start to get pessimistic real fast haha. But I did reboot after each action, but no success.

                Thanks, It seems it is related to bluez. I just have no Idea. This is all way above my head.

                pomon Well, I found it. It won't hurt to try

                You are a machine! Thanks for this, at first I didn't no what I was looking at, then I saw the command to enter.

                MAJOR UPDATE** I followed the instructions given in the link: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1009987

                Steps I took

                • Opened Konsole
                • Entered command:
                  • sudo install -m 700 -d /var/lib/bluetooth
                • Restarted Bluetooth? I'm not sure if I did it right:
                  • sudo systemctl restart bluetooth.service
                • Rebooted Laptop

                After Reboot these are the noted changes

                • Visible Bluetooth System Tray Entry


                • Bluetooth Settings No longer Blank (Clicking Enable Does nothing)

                Output of: sudo systemctl status bluetooth.service

                Output of: sudo journalctl -xeu bluetooth.service

                Definitely surprised from the progress/results. Didn't expect any success at all. I'm now optimistic.
                Unfortunately though, still no bluetooth. Any Ideas?

                Thank you all for your help with this. You are all awesome 😃

                      Ok. Show lsmod | grep bt and systemctl status bluetooth.target
                      Proposal. Install kernel LTS, switch to it and see if it is BT sudo eopkg it linux-lts

                        pomon
                        Output of: lsmod |grep bt

                        Output of: sudo systemctl status bluetooth.target

                        I'll install kernal LTS and get back to you about the results

                          Some suggest

                          sudo modprobe -r btusb
sudo modprobe btusb
                            10 days later

                            pomon Some suggest
                            sudo modprobe -r btusb
                            sudo modprobe btusb

                            Still no success. Thanks for all your suggestions. Hopefully a future update magically fixes it.
