Since BlueZ 5, the adapter power state (on/off) is not saved anymore by bluetoothd (on BlueZ 4, there were InitiallyPowered/RememberPowered options in main.conf that took care of powering up adapters; these options are gone in BlueZ 5). There should be an external component that takes care of powering up the adapter after it is attached. > >> (assuming there is no UI applet running that should take care of >> powering it up automatically.) > > Which is an interesting point.

I don't use GNOME, but in theory, once you enable Bluetooth on its settings, the adapter will be powered on once it is attached.
