Hi,

check in "Startup Applications" to see if you have any bluetooth devices active when you start!.

Also check in BIOS to see what settings you have there in relation to bluetooth.

Try installing the package "bluetooth" for bluetooth support:

Code:
sudo apt-get install bluetooth


Let us know if this helps. :D

Hi,

here is something about BIOS for you:

You'll find startup applications in: Zorin Menu > System Tools > Preferences >Startup Applications:

Open Synaptic and type "bluetooth" in search and double click the package to install it, click on "Apply" when done and restart!. :D
