hello, newbie here...

so i installed sparky stable (xfce) in an external usb stick and i encountered a bluetooth issue.  i write the solution i found here because others may find that usefull.
the problem was (and still is since i have to do the same every time i boot) that bluetooth daemon doesn't start at all. So first i give in terminal the command " hcitool dev " and then " sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart " and that works.

Exatly when it fails and what type of connection? Keep in mind that there are several types of bluetooth connections, every each have it's aspects and requires specific packages to be present on the system to work properly.
