Bluetooth cannot find adapters

English Hardware
#1

Hi, it’s my first post here and I’m very happy using Opensuse, except for this sudden bug in Bluetooth.
Basically, it says that no adapter can be found. I’ve tried updating and nothing happened…

I’m have the same problem after updating my tumbleweed install today (1-2-2021) @ 11am CST. I have what appears to be the same BT adapter.

Here’s the kernel:


5.10.3-1-default #1 SMP Mon Dec 28 09:29:24 UTC 2020 (73f6c2f) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Here’s the dmesg error:



inxi -nxxx

[FONT=monospace]

**Device-3:** IMC Networks Atheros AR3012 Bluetooth 4.0 Adapter **type:** USB **driver:** btusb **bus ID:** 1-1.1:3  
           **chip ID:** 13d3:3362 **serial:** Alaska Day 2006  
           **IF-ID-1:** virbr0 **state:** down **mac:** 52:54:00:1b:c5:e2

This results in no devices found for BT, I assume it’s a kernel driver bug that should be reported upstream.

try to disable wifi sometimes cases issues in other rolling release distros but never had it in openSUSE or openSUSE tumbleweed

#6

Apologies…guess my code tags got messed up and the info didn’t paste for dmesg.

Bluetooth: hci0: don’t support firmware rome 0x1020200

That’s what we’re seeing for this kernel and the BT chip we both have.

#7

also is most lily an linux kernel bug as leap does not acknowledge my Bluetooth adapter properly with wifi on and tumbleweed is not able to detect the adapter at all

#8

As already written it is a regression in the kernel driver, see:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=210681
A patch is available but apparently has not landed in the kernel tree yet.
If you still have a 5.9.x kernel stick to it until a fixed kernel is available.

#9

I am new to OpenSuse.
I faced the same problem with bluetooth device after updating to new kernel 5.10.
Figured out the problem is “hci0: don’t support firmware rome 0x1020200”
Also I found workaround to patch this issue, but it seems to be in Arch Linux, I can not find btusb.c config file in TumbleWeed.
Is there any way I can patch this?
