Hi Alessandro, you should check what kernel you are running on your raspi and your notebook (uname -a) You can update your kernel and the other firmware on the raspi with rpi-update. Can you also look at the kernel messages (with dmesg), especially for bluetooth messages, on both machines. Hope this helps to narrow the problem down.
