          I had the same problem.
          Fixed it by removing the Ralink wifi card and replacing it with an Atheros card from a scrap Laptop.
          Now all works great in Linux, Backtrack and Win7

          I have a partial solution! This is based on https://github.com/loimu/rtbth-dkms



          This will install a compatible driver:




          sudo add-apt-repository ppa:blaze/rtbth-dkms
          sudo apt-get update
          sudo apt-get install rtbth-dkms
          sudo modprobe rtbth
          sudo rfkill unblock bluetooth



          With that, I'm able to scan for Bluetooth devices and connect to them. Sadly, I can't get it to transfer data!
