[bluetooth] hcc not listing any device

h0m3 · Jun 6, 2019

Hello,

I'm new to FreeBSD and I'm trying to install my bluetooth mice.

Following the FreeBSD Handbook I run hccontrol -n ubt0hci inquiry and got only Inquiry complete. Status: No error [00] but no device is listed. I've double checked and my mouse is visible on my phone.

When running service blouetooth restart ubt0 sometimes I get /etc/rc.d/bluetooth: ERROR: Unable to setup Bluetooth stack for device ubt0 and sometimes I got no error, like a successful restart.

My ngctl status ubt0 return ngctl: send msg: No such file or directory.

I'm running FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE.

My ngctl li has:

Code:

There are 6 total nodes:
  Name: ngctl1549       Type: socket          ID: 00000040   Num hooks: 0
  Name: ubt0            Type: ubt             ID: 00000001   Num hooks: 0
  Name: btsock_hci_raw  Type: btsock_hci_raw  ID: 00000002   Num hooks: 0

  Name: btsock_l2c      Type: btsock_l2c      ID: 00000004   Num hooks: 0
  Name: btsock_sco      Type: btsock_sco      ID: 00000005   Num hooks: 0

and my ngctl types has:

Code:

There are 8 total types:
      Type name   Number of living nodes
      ---------   ----------------------
         socket       1
     btsock_sco       1
     btsock_l2c       1
 btsock_l2c_raw       1
 btsock_hci_raw       1
          l2cap       0
            hci       0
            ubt       1

I've got some errors (I guess) on my /var/log/messages:

I think that this is somehow related to the fact that my wifi card is not supported. For what I've read the bluetooth and wifi modules are independent (it's a laptop) but I don't know if there is any bluetooth driver for my card. My card is a Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter as from pciconf -lv.

Update on the topic.

For some reason I can see my smartphone using hccontrol -n ubt0hci inquiry but both my bluetooth mices don't show. I have a Dell bluetooth and a Logitech G603 bluetooth. This phone can see and pair with both mouses. I've tryied some pair combinations, both mouses are on discovery mode and nothing.

Also, my /boot/loader.conf:

Code:

netgraph_load="YES"
ng_ubt_load="YES"
vkbd_load="YES"
snd_hda_load="YES"
cpu_microcode_load="YES"
cpu_microcode_name="/boot/firmware/intel-ucode.bin"

and my /etc/rc.conf

Code:

kld_list="/boot/modules/i915kms.ko"
clear_tmp_enable="YES"
syslogd_flags="-ss"
sendmail_enable="NONE"
hostname="r3tr0"
