From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Bluetooth issues (lemmy.fish)

Using latest fedora 41 with Plasma Mobile, I can't get Bluetooth to work. Nothing shows up running bluetoothctl list. It's an intel wireless 7265, which shows up as a network controller under lspci, but the bluetooth part doesnt. hciconfig returns nothing.

Steps I've taken:

sudo modprobe bluetooth

sudo dnf install bluez bluez-utils

sudo systemctl start bluetooth

I'm having deja vu where I followed all these steps before, but somehow I'm stuck here. Thank you for any help.

question! do you think installing the fedora vanilla kernel would solve this? I've used different distros that supported this bluetooth driver, so I assume it's already in the kernel and ready.
