RT3290 Bluetooth Not Working

RT3290 Bluetooth Not Working

I have an HP Envy H8-1437c system and my bluetooth is not working. I am
running Ubuntu 13.04 with kubuntu-desktop installed. This is a UEFI
system, but legacy boot is turned on.
I have a Ralink RT3290 wireless and bluetooth card, and the wireless works
fine. When I go to the bluetooth settings in KDE, I am told that no
bluetooth adapters were found.
Here is one part of the output of lspci -v:
03:00.1 Bluetooth: Ralink corp. RT3290 Bluetooth Subsystem:
Hewlett-Packard Company Device 18ec Flags: fast devsel, IRQ 11 Memory at
f7200000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=64K] Capabilities:
And rfkill list:
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
As you can see, bluetooth simply does not show up. I know that my computer
is capable of using bluetooth; it worked before I wiped Windows and it is
clearly advertised on the box that the computer came in.
I tried downloading the driver for the bluetooth card from
http://downloads.zotac.com/mediadrivers/mb/download/NB087_Ubuntu.zip. When
I follow the instructions from here, I get stuck at the first step. Here
is the output of the make command when I am in

I do not know why I cannot build the package. Based on other people's
reports, the driver works once you build it. I need the rtbth.ko file to
put into /etc/Wireless/RT3290. Please help me get my bluetooth working...
Thanks!
Edit: I just read another AskUbuntu post about this, with the same problem
as me. Please see here. I am wondering if I can somehow download the
rtbth.ko file from somewhere, since that is really all I need to get
bluetooth working... I appreciate any help on this topic. I know I could
switch back to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, but I really can't because there is
software on Ubuntu 13.04 that I need for work... Thanks again!
