I’ve been using manjaro XFCE for a while now and everything works fine, except bluetooth, which consistently requires a restart to work (the errors and logs I’ll be posting are on first boot, when it doesn’t work). I am on a HP Pavilion G4, with a BCM4313 Network Adapter / BCM2070 Bluetooth Adapter combo.
I have trying installing broadcom-bt-firmware from AUR, bluez-hidtohci, restarting bluetooth service, rfkill unblock and most solutions I found online, but nothing worked. Any ideas on how I can use my bluetooth without having to reboot everytime?
