BerryLan cannot access Bluetooth when installing on Plain Raspbian about berrylan HOT 10 CLOSED

Instructions in the README.md need improvement it seems,

from berrylan.

Does Bluetooth work in general? The logs says there would be no adapter available.

What does hciconfig -a give?

from berrylan.

yeah, works.

this is straight up raspbian buster install. no changes.

The berrylan image really is just a plain raspbian buster lite with nymea-networkmanager preinstalled too. This is the complete patch against the upstream raspbian image: nymea/pi-gen@13413d9

So next guess would be a permission problem. Are you running it as a user or root?

from berrylan.

The problem occurs when from a fresh install of buster you do apt update, apt upgrade - and after the upgrade bluetooth no longer works correctly.

this looks maybe related RPi-Distro/pi-bluetooth#25

from berrylan.

also RPi-Distro/pi-bluetooth#26

from berrylan.

BerryLan works fine if you don't apt upgrade. Going to close this. not your problem!

Thanks for digging into this.

I've filed a pull request to update the README.
