cant find bluetooth

[starfly]

Give it a Try with my own Howto for those Acpi Cards : ( it isnt much work and cant damage anything)

1. Download Omnibook-source debian package ( use one u get via google etc)
2. sudo apt-get install module-assistant build-essential
3. Install the Source
4. sudo m-a a-i omnibook-source ----> Source Module should be build
5 .sudo gedit /etc/modules ---> Put "omnibook" in it
6. make a text file called "omnibook" in /etc/modprobe.d/
7. Put this line in the file : options omnibook ectype=14 userset=0 lcd=0 display=0 blank=0 battery=0 ac=0
8. sudo modprobe omnibook ectype=14
9. Restart

----> Then there should be the Bluetooth Icon in the Taskbar..if not, iam very unpleased and helpless

"sudo apt-get install module-assistant build-essentia"............this command does not work

apt-get doesn't work on rpm-based systems. I haven't used rpm from command line for at least 6 years, so can't recall proper syntax. Hopefully someone else can correct the commands.

install build-essential of its own, it worked on my computer...

if you are on fedore (rpm) etc.

just use yumextender or in ubuntu (deb) synaptic... search for build-essential...install it
build the module...

short : install the files via graphical user interface, system based...
