List, I am running a 2.6.5-rc3-ben0 kernel with a sid installation on a 1.25GHz 15" Aluminum PowerBook G4, which has built-in Bluetooth. Although bluez-utils installed just fine and all of the messages onstartup indicate that hcid, rfcomm, l2cap, etc. are starting just fine,I have no Bluetooth device available. At first I thought it was because I did not have an appropriate device driver compiled as a kernel module, but I think I have eliminated that possibility (see kernel config excerpt below). When I run 'hcitool dev', nothing shows up:What debian branch are you running ? You need the hid2hci tool included in the bluez-utils package in unstable. It didn't work on my Powerbook G4 15" with linux-2.6.5 (caused a kernel oops when switching from hid to hci) but it works great with a 2.6.7 I tested today and file transfer worked between my computer and a Dell. Hope this helps, -- Alain Perry
Alain,Thanks for the reply. By sid installation I meant the unstable branch. I forgot to include the error from hid2hci; here it is:
$ hid2hci No devices in HCI mode found By the way, where did you get your 2.6.7 kernel/sources? Thanks,- -- Barry C. Hawkins
