Zaurus - pdaXrom / Socket Bluetooth Card (again...)

« on: November 06, 2004, 10:34:15 pm »

Finally got my Rev. H card to be recognized.
This should work on Rev. G as well.

Heres what I did, based on a posting from last year  I found:
I'm runing pdaXrom RC5.
I have my /etc/pcmcia/bluetooth.conf entry set for my card to be recognized:

card "Socket Bluetooth Card"
  version "Socket", "CF+ Personal Network Card Rev 2.5"
  bind "serial_cs"

Power up to console and log in.

   modprobe hci_uart

Insert Socket Bluetooth Card

It should spew text about ttyS03 at port 0xf60003f8 bla bla bla

The next line is the key to making everything work!
   cardctl resume 0
   hciattach /dev/ttyS3 bcsp 230400
   hciconfig

It should show
hci0:    Type: UART
             BD Address: 00:02:C7:42:91:E1 ACL MTU: 340:4 etc etc
             etc etc

The point is the BD address should no longer be  00:00:00:00:00:

I put my Verizon V710 into discoverable mode, the ran
   hcitool scan

and it responded with
Scanning ...
              00:0A:28:36:21:12   Motorola Phone

Thats as far as I got so far, now on to make it do something more useful.

I hope this helps you bastichelaar !

Maybe that explains why I haven gotten my Rev H card to work with RC5 either? I just got my C860 and RC5 is my first use of pdaXrom. Any help would be appreciated.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Most important missing/to be fixed in pdaXrom?

Bluetooth support in pdaXrom has been frustrating in that the hardware is changing faster than the drivers. I bought 3 bluetooth CF cards and it seems theres no drivers for them yet.
My request would be to keep your eyes open for new drivers that can be included.

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Trying to get Socket rev G Bluetooth to work...

« on: October 21, 2004, 07:55:20 pm »

I've got a C860 with pdaXrom 1.10rc5 and I cant seem to get bluetooth working.

I have a :
  Anycom CF-300  - no drivers available
 Ambicom BT2000-CF model C - no drivers available
so I order a Socket CF Bluetooth card, Rev H,
modified my /etc/pcmcia/bluetooth.conf so that the  card is
set to use serial_cs.

After inserting the card, I see the message:
  cardmgr[130]: socket 0: Socket Bluetooth Card
  ttyS03 at port 0xf60003f8 (irq = 39) is a 16C950/954

I ran modprobe hci_uart which appears to load fine

I've tried hciattach every which way I've read, but always seem to get:
   BCSP initialization timed out

Anyone get this new revision Socket card working?

Regards,
   Steve
