Using the instructions in this answer I was able to get Bluetooth working with a small Asus branded USB receiver. I was able to see other Bluetooth devices in the area, but whenever I put my Motorola S10 headset in discoverable mode and ran the hcitool scan command, it would freeze up for a moment and then return with the error Inquiry failed: Connection timed out

I am guessing it is probably just missing the required bits to enable the A2DP and/or Headset profiles that the S10 is reporting back as supporting. Is there a package I can just apt-get and enjoy? For what it is worth, I installed bluetooth, bluez-utils and blueman through apt-get.

Although not officially considered "answered" by the OP, he did find a temporary solution, which I believe merits at least a stand-in answer until he finds a full solution. You can read the comment that I believe merits this stand-in here.

This answer can be removed as soon as the OP decides that he has completely solved the issue.
