« Reply #15 on: June 24, 2007, 09:00:33 am »
It is working for me here with a Sitecom Compact Flash Bluetooth adaptor.

  Installed r198
  Installed SP8
  inserted card
  setserial /dev/ttyS3 baud_base 921600
  hciattach -s 921600 /dev/ttyS3 bcsp

  Then you can use hcitool scan,  etc.


  Thanks for your help!

actually, with SP8 installed, all that is set for you automatically...

/etc/rc.d/init.d/bluetooth start or stop will do the trick

   That isn't working for me.  I still had to enter those commands for it to work.

   There are two entries for "Compact Flash", "Bluetooth Card", "", "" in bt-uart.conf  ,   could that be the reason?

I couldn't get it to work either, still fails whe attaching the device, unfortunately I have had to flash back to pdaXii13 for the moment as I am going on the road for a few weeks.  Hoping to give it another try when I get back, thanks for the help

I've my usb bluetooth dongle working on my C1k running r198 ... but I did it manually.
I've documented what I did to get the ppp link to my old ISP on my homepage along with a bluetooth connection manager help script.  ("Zaurus" on the left, "Issues" on the top and then "ppp_over_bluetooth" or just go directly here)

BTW: I also checked out GPRS connectivity with a slightly modified chat script.
I've no means to check out UMTS connectivity but I guess it should be fine too.

I also got bluetooth networking going ... but that took a little more effort:
apparently there is an issue between bluez version 2.21 (default on pdaXrom) and version 2.25 (the one I've on my laptop) .... while negotiating a connection with pand I was getting protocol errors.
Since this did not happen if I used 2 devices to do the whole thing on my laptop alone ... I upgraded the bluez stack on my C1K also to version 2.25. Once the upgrade was done bnep started working correctly.

I've also made some extensions to my bluetooth managing script "blue" and written a very simple but functional daemon to manage NAP in a way to make it similar to an ordinary wifi access point. If anyone is intrested I'll share ;-)
