Has updating the kernel been attempted yet

You can do it somewhere in the update manager its easier in there

The drivers might just have issues then

Assuming they even have them

#

on windows they work

#

Try resetting BIOS to defaults as the bluetooth device is not found at all, it should be in lsusb results with an ID like 8087:****

#

I did a quick Google, it's part of the WiFi chip and looks to have some historical issues with Linux despite being supported in iwlwifi

#

Which is very tasty and delicious

#

The Bluetooth end would be handled by btusb and btintel

#

Yerrr

#

Looks kinda like they shat the bed with that specific card though

I think there is something weird with the BIOS and it doesn't want to reveal that USB device for whatever reason.
