Alright. Here's the deal.
I have a Compact Flash Bluetooth Card. I do NOT have a compact flash reader on my laptop. I DO however have a Compact Flash to PCMCIA converter. Using this, bluetooth works fine in windows.
Bluetooth CF >>> CF to PCMCIA Converter >>> Laptop
I have cf/sd/mm stuff enabled in kernel
I have pcmcia stuff enabled in kernel (I have a wireless card, works great)
below are a few things that show some system information..
Oh, and I found this website.

I don't have any idea how to detect the bluetooth card for hciconfig tho
Uhm, the bluetooth card DOES blink.. so its getting power... (shrug) I'm confused.
