Bug#674565: linux-image-3.2.0-2-amd64: Bluetooth activation failed (btusb module)



Package: linux-2.6 Version: 3.2.18-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch


Dear Maintainer,

This is a minor but annoying bug,
btusb on my HP Envy 15 laptop failed to activate bluetooth,
since it lacks the appropriate usb_device_id entry.

I would propose adding the entry for more convinience and usability.
Currently I have to use some commands to activate the bluetooth module
by adding the ID entry on related sysfs file.

Err, upon examining the code I found that the entry already existed in
current 3.2 kernel source file (drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c) but looks 
like it is a typo error. 

--- this is the original line  ---
        /* Broadcom SoftSailing reporting vendor specific */
        { USB_DEVICE(0x05ac, 0x21e1) },

--- it supposed to be like this (checked in 3.4 source) ---
        /* Broadcom SoftSailing reporting vendor specific */
        { USB_DEVICE(0x0a5c, 0x21e1) },

--- this is the original line  ---
        /* Broadcom SoftSailing reporting vendor specific */
        { USB_DEVICE(0x05ac, 0x21e1) },

--- it supposed to be like this (checked in 3.4 source) ---
        /* Broadcom SoftSailing reporting vendor specific */
        { USB_DEVICE(0x0a5c, 0x21e1) },

Thanks, hope it helps.


All the best.
