    bluetooth is not running ... failed

    how do I get my bluetooth running?
    i have tried:
    root@kali:~# aptitude install bluetooth
    looking through forums, i found
    root@kali:~# echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi/bluetooth_enable
    but this didn't work either.
    when i do: service bluetooth status
    i get the message: bluetooth is not running... failed

    i know i am missing a rookie step which i can not find in the forums. can someone please point it out to me?

    thanks in advance!
