I have a bluetooth keyboard paired with my laptop. When I reboot a system and get to a login page, I'm not able to use it. Bluetooth isn't active. I've researched the question and found out I have to have blues package installed. Still I stuck on how to script an installation of blues and all its settings on bash.

Are there any alternative ways to enable bluetooth on a login page from terminal?

Or how can I script an installation of blues and all its settings on bash?

  • The program is called "bluez" and not "blues" so try installing it if it is not already installed . sudo apt-get install bluez bluez-tools You may need additional packages, I am not sure, sudo apt-get install bluez-utils bulez-compat. For a full list see https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=bluez – Panther Oct 14 '17 at 12:45

  • Read my answer on another question to see how I did it on 16.04 (with the help of other fellow Ubuntu users of course): https://askubuntu.com/a/1023532/815371 – Dagmar Apr 10 '18 at 06:56
