Hello everyone,
A bit of background: just recently made the decision to switch from Windows 11 to Linux, and I settled on Kubuntu. I installed Kubuntu 26.04 on my recently purchased laptop. It feels very modern, snappy, and a joy to use as a complete Linux beginner. Installation was straightforward except for one small but important issue. Bluetooth does not seem to be working properly, if at all, prompting me to make my first post on this forum. Although I can see the bluetooth option, whenever I hit the switch to turn it on, it still says disabled. In the bluetooth configuration tool, there is no difference between the enabled and disabled state as the panel simply displays "disabled".
Here is the inxi output:
I also found similar post, but on older Ubuntu support forms. One user requested info from the command
which is quite long:
Any help is appreciated.
