Anyone even tried?
I am using a different dongle, but 99% of USB BT dongles are standard and compatible.
Possible problems:
- You didn't switch to host mode (the default is client mode, however some kernels incorrectly send power even in client mode). See lsusb, you should see at least USB host device.
- Dongle manufacturer incorrectly claim power requirement. Typical dongle needs 60mA, Z supports 150mA. If the device claims more, it is rejected. See lsusb -v for claimed power. There is several way to work-around: powered hub, sysfs quirk (can be found somewhere on OESF), patched kernel
- BT daemons are not running. Dongle works, but no services. Depending on the dongle, light may be down. Run /etc/init.d/bluetooth start (may depend on distro)
- Dongle in HID mode by default. Running hid2hci may help to switch to HCI (BT "host").
