Help for USB Dongle Asus USB-BT400 with Raspberry Pi and Bluez

Hi guys,

I hope this can be the right place where to find help for my problems.

I need to use the dongle Asus USB-BT400 to provide Bluetooth support
for my Raspberry Pi in which I installed the Raspbian distribution.
I have to work with Raspberry Pi and a BLE device called SensorTag
from Texas Instruments. So I have to use the gatttool command from
Bluez.
I followed the instructions from this site to set up Bluez in my
Raspberry Pi with Raspbian.

I downloaded and installed the last version of Bluez 5.11.
I plugged in my BLE USB dongle in my Raspberry Pi but I think there
are some problems.
When I type in the command "hciconfig" I have no output results.
And also when I type in "hcitool dev" no devices is listed.
But when I type in "lsusb" the output is:

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9512 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0b05:17cb ASUSTek Computer, Inc.

The last one is my USB dongle, so I think the hardware is correctly recognized.
Which could be my problem?

I also tried the dongle Asus USB-BT400 in my notebook with Xubuntu
13.10 and it worked very well (hciconfig sees the bluetooth
interface).

I also read something about my dongle by googling and I found the
message linked below from this mailing list, so I thought you can help
me or give me a way forward.

Maybe I can edit some source files to add the device ID? If yes, which
changes I have to do?

Thanks in advance for your help
Regards
