Cacko: Bluetooth Works Only Once
« on: February 17, 2005, 05:16:45 am »
On my C860 with Cacko 1.22 lite and a Belkin Bluetooth card I can connect via Bluetooth only once.
After disconnecting the session every new connection attempt fails.

In /tmp/bluetooth-pppd-log a error message appears:
"Failed to open /dev/rfcomm0: No route to host"

After a
cardctl eject 0 ; sleep 1 ; cardctl insert 0[/font]
everything is fine again.

So appending this to the /etc/ppp/ip-down script will solve the problem:
if [ "$2" == "/dev/rfcomm0" ] ; then
cardctl eject 0
sleep 1
cardctl insert 0
fi
[/font]

This solution is a hack - maybe someone knows why this problem occurs.

Partialy because you're the first one actualy using this card  
This might ne a driver problem - looks like it needs te be reinitialised uon disconnect. I don't know why....

I use the Belkin Bluetooth-Card F8T020 with the large 1.22a on a c860 without any trouble. Worked great out of the box.

once I'd gotten the PIN helpers sorted out, my symbol/socket wlan card worked fine with cacko out of the box talking to SuSE9.2 using PAND networking.

I've found that SuSE can do odd things when using ppp/rfcomm - it seems to delete the /dev/rfcomm device on certain installs.
