More details on which steps you take to reproduce the problem should
help identifying the issue.

Also run "sudo hcidump -w hcidump.dump"  while you do these steps and
attach the generated hcidump.dump to your email so we can see what's
going on.

Ubuntu (as pretty much every Desktop Linux distro, as far as I know)
uses BlueZ. The only difference is that distros may use different
BlueZ and/or kernel versions and this may cause different levels of
hardware support.

My suggestion is for you to download a Live CD/USB for Ubuntu (ideally
for the version BlueRigger tested) and confirm yourself it works.

Again, you need to provide more information:

* hcidump log (as explained above)

The information below is also important because not everyone here uses
Fedora 18:
* kernel version ("uname -r")
* bluez version ("bluetoothd --version", or at least the package
version from the distro).
