install bluetooth adapter 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio

#1 Post by SImon2020 »

Hi there, I tried to get the adapter to run, but I failed so far.

What I did:
Plug the adapter, install some packages:
apt install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth bluez-firmware btscanner blueman bluez bluez-tools libpam-blue python-bluez
sudo apt-get install bluetooth bluez libbluetooth-dev libudev-dev libcap2-bin

Some outputs that might be helpful:

Unfortunately, google lead me to this page and I followed the steps:

I think this destroyed some dependencies. Before I running the stuff in the post, I had:
