Linux Driver

The Bluetooth adapter uses the hci_usb driver (CONFIG_BT_HCIUSB).

One can enable Bluetooth by pressing FnF5. If you have the ibm_acpi kernel module loaded or compiled into the kernel, you may also run the following command with root privileges:

# echo "enable" > /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth

On the T61 and Z61, the Wireless kill-radio switch disables both WiFi and Bluetooth.

(Verified on a ThinkPad Z60m and Z61t.)
