The Bluetooth toggle problems

pf flag

Whenever I try to enable Bluetooth, the toggle never switches to "On". This is what I mean:

Settings — Bluetooth

I have tried many bluetooth packages, blutooth.start service, etc., but nothing has worked.

From the looks of the message, the system does not know that you have a Bluetooth device. Can you [edit your question] to include the output of `lsusb` and `lspci`? If you can also include the brand and model of your computer, this will make it much more likely that someone can offer you something actionable.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
