AmbiCom BT2000C with BlueZ

[bluev]

I am wondering if anyone has successfully used an Ambicom BT2000C Bluetooth CF card with bluez on an 6000L with stock ROM.

The hciattach tool in the latest bluez utilities package (version 10) seems to indicate support for it.  However, I've been told that these bluez packages do not support the 2.4.18 kernel.

The hciattach included in the bluez-zaurus_2.3-2.4.18d_arm.ipk package seems to be based on an earlier version of bluez.

Where did you see that?

When I look at the source code in hciattach.c included in the bluez-utils-2.10.tar.gz , I see that bt2000c is one of the options.  Here's the excerpt from the uart table that stores information about the protocol type and the initialization routine to use on this device.

struct uart_t uart[] = {
                ...
                /* AmbiCom BT2000C Bluetooth PC/CF Card */
                { "bt2000c",  0x022d, 0x2000, HCI_UART_H4,    57600, 460800, FLOW_CTL, csr  },
                { NULL, 0 }
};

It is the last entry added to this array, so I would suspect it is one of the latest to be added

I might see about compiling it and if the latest packages do not work with the Zaurus kernel then it might be possible to copy that bit of hciattach and put it in an older version.
