@Jeremy31 I have updated the question description with the same

What kernel is being used? `uname -r` You should probably file a bug report as this device isn't in the newest kernels but I might be able to get it going with a change to the source code

@Jeremy31 my system is running on 5.19.0-43-generic

First check mokutil --sb as Secure Boot must be disabled if Ubuntu is installed in EUFI Then in terminal

sudo apt install git dkms
git clone https://github.com/jeremyb31/bluetooth-5.19.git
sudo dkms add ./bluetooth-5.19
sudo dkms install btusb/4.0

Reboot

Thank you so much, it worked like a charm. If possible, please let me know what was the reason it wasn't working in the first place.

Additionally, my brightness slider isn't working, could you please assist me with that too? I am running Nvidia 530 driver on a 4060 laptop (Asus G14 GA402XV 2023 model)

As I said, your Bluetooth wasn't supported even in the newest kernel, my source code is patched with https://github.com/jeremyb31/bluetooth-5.19/commit/3020823182dd74ca9c169eeb3d058908357b8452 and that is what made it work. Start a new question for the brightness slider as I am not familiar with Nvidia

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.
