OK. Been running Dragonized Garuda on an older laptop for a couple months now, and I love it. Smooth, fast, the whole thing. The only “issue” I’m having is finding any BT device I want to connect to. Mouse, headphones, what have you. When I scan, I get a list of numbers and letters, but nothing to discern the device I want to connect to. I’ve tried process of elimination, and that’s just about impossible because the list is big (2 dozen maybe) and it’s constantly refreshing, So I can’t keep track of what I have already tried.
Any tips for how to either make it show the name or find my device?
