I just installed Ubuntu 16.04, then installed ubuntu-gnome-desktop on it.

I'm unable to use the bluetooth. I have selected the broadcom driver to use from "Additional Drivers" section.

The wifi works, but not bluetooth.

Moreover, the bluetooth settings screen shows Visible as "Bastien's Computer"... I didnt give that name!

I installed "Bluetooth Manager" and "Bluetooth Adapter" (Blueman) from Softwares, but still nothing. The adapter doesn't show up in there.

It just keeps searching and doesn't find anything. Doesn't show up on other devices.

sudo service bluetooth status
