The problem I encountered while trying to connect my Soundcore Life Q10 Bluetooth headphones to Kali Linux by accessing the Kali Bluetooth Devices page.
The Bluez background program is not running, and blueman-manager cannot proceed. This likely means that the Bluetooth adapter is not detected or the Bluetooth background program is not started
Solution
First, it is beneficial to complete your system updates. You can run the following command in the terminal:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
If there is no issue with your Bluetooth device, you can start your Bluetooth service with the following command:
systemctl start bluetooth.service
To avoid running this command every time and to ensure the service starts automatically each time your computer boots, you can run the following command:
systemctl enable bluetooth.service
Besides the use of penetration testing tools, I am also considering sharing content related to solving such issues from time to time. I will probably gather these under the Kali Linux category.
