Subject: [Bluez-users] BCM203x - firmware load failed


Hi *,

I have a problem with Belkin Bluetooth USB adapter based on BCM203x
chip. When I plug this dongle into USB port, kernel returns:

Bluetooth: Broadcom Blutonium firmware driver ver 1.0
bcm203x_probe: Mini driver request failed
bcm203x: probe of 2-1:1.0 failed with error -5
usbcore: registered new driver bcm203x

I am using :

The same configuration is working for me on other hardware very well.

Could you have a look please ? Thank you.

you must make sure that the firmware files are installed. On a Debian
System is should be enough to install the bluez-firmware package.
