What?

I used to know this, but someone hacked package to work on wandboard too
It should be
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pacman -S linux-firmware firmware-brcm43xx bluez-utils
reboot or modprobe brcmfmac
systemctl start brcm43xx
hciconfig -a')

Great pepedog!!! One more question: why do I need to enable the service after every (re)boot?
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'systemctl enable brcm43xx
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/bluetooth.target.wants/brcm43xx.service to /usr/lib/systemd/system/brcm43xx.service.

Thank you!

I assumed you knew about systemctl enable brcm43xx bluetooth, and wanted to test.
If all ok, bluetoothctl is your friend, let me know if all ok as I'm not in position to do a clean install

As you can see everything is enabled on boot:$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '[root@cubox-nas ~]# systemctl status bluetooth brcm43xx brcm43xx-firmware.service

But if I don't manually start brcm43xx.service the bluetooth isn't working:$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '[root@cubox-nas ~]# rfkill list && hciconfig -a && bluetoothctl
0: phy0: Wireless LAN

[bluetooth]# devices
[bluetooth]# list

[bluetooth]#')

I will venture an answer.

systemctl enable brcm43xx | bluetooth links the .service files to the etc/systemd/system/bluetooth.target.wants directory. This is not started on boot.
When you place the links in /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants instead they are.

at least, it will using a wandboard, (sorry pepedog, could't resist)

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'cd /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/systemd/system/brcm43xx.service
')

It has been suggested a timer file might help, I don't have time though (no pun intended)
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/brcm43xx.timer
[Unit]
Description=brcm43xx Delayed Startup

Thanks guys! As soon I'll have enough time I'll give it a try. I'll let you know.
