I run ubuntu and i was never able to get the bluetooth working. I went into windows (since i have a dual boot), and i saw that i didnt install the drivers, so i installed the drivers there and then i rebooted into ubuntu and viola , bluetooth works :) looks like the card got enabled when i installed the drivers on windows ! I am sure its not a firmware kind of thing that went into the drivers .. but who knows, this could be the only documented case where windows driver in windows installation, causes a device to working in ubuntu linux !!! Convergence isnt it.
Making sense out of nothing at all .... A place where i will give my viewpoint on each and every news i feel i have a view on ... I will try to be unbiased ... but remember i am a human ! Excuse me for not making sense ! - Initially i thought of keeping this strictly technical but later i guess i thought it makes sense to keep it generic ! You are warned .. this blog is going to be very very boring.

[solved] USB powered on during suspend/sleep
I had a problem with my laptop where my USB powered laptop cooler was on even when the laptop was on sleep.
To solve this its pretty simple... on dell studio 1555
In bios, there is USB, and disable the option that says "Wakeup on suspend" . Thats it .. on suspend, next time USB will also sleep.
