E320 bluetooth not working

Hello, I have a 2 week old E320, but for some reason bluetooth doesn't seem to work. I am trying to connect a Thinkpad bluetooth mouse but nothing happens when I try and add the device.

 

I downloaded and tried to install the latest bluetooth driver (Thinkpad bluetooth with enhanced data rate) but halfway through the installation is says 'the bluetooth device could not be be detected'. Yet on the packing slip from Lenovo it clearly says it has bluetooth! Help appreciated! :smileyhappy:

Don't worry, figured it out. Didn't realise I had to hit F9 and then go to 'individual devices' to activate bluetooth.......

Re: E320 bluetooth not working

Hi!

 

I've bought a E320 and I've also this problem... I've installed Win7 and Linux Mint 13. No problem with windows, only in Mint I can't use bluetooth. If I write in terminal

 

rfkill list

 bluetooth is hard blocked.No chance to unblock it.

 

Thanks!
