It's a D-Link DBT 120 bluetooth USB adapter updated to firmware 1.1. To get it working you have to get the new utils from the CVS tree of bluez. 1) mkdir bluez 2) cd bluez 3) cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.bluez.org:/cvsroot/bluez login 4) cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.bluez.org:/cvsroot/bluez co libs2 5)cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.bluez.org:/cvsroot/bluez co utils2 6) cd libs2 7) ./bootstrap; ./configure; make; sudo make install 8) cd ../utils2 9) ./bootstrap; ./configure; make; sudo make install 10) "Insert your usb adapter now" 11) cd hid 12) ./hid2hci And it should be up and running. You can contact me if you have any question, but I'm not a bluez developer. -- Pierre
