Created attachment 84781 [details] patch for ath3k.c and btusb.c I have a Sony Vaio VPCEH1S0E with a bluetooth adapter that was not working until now :) lsusb show me this: 0489:e027 Foxconn / Hon Hai which adapter is an Atheros AR3011 (ath3k kernel module). To get it working the file ath3k.c and btusb.c must be updated with its "code" (0489:e027). I've attached a patch for ath3k.c and btusb.c I'm running: Gentoo amd64 with linux-kernel 3.5.* and 3.6.* with linux-firmware 20120917 After that patched has been applied lsusb show me: Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0cf3:3005 Atheros Communications, Inc. AR3011 Bluetooth and the adapter is now working :)
This needs a Signed-off-by: <youremail> to go into the tree - see Documentation/SubmittingPatches, but looks fine.
