Will this stuff work with pdaXrom?

Will this stuff work with a USB Bluetooth adaptor?

Thanks!

Neither Affix nor Bluez list that BE2830 as being directly supported (but not listed as not working either).  Might be too new.  Bluez mailing lists mention other Belkin devices, but not that one.  Affix mailing lists don't talk about anything belkin at all.  If it will work with anything, it will work with Bluez.

You should see if you can find out what the chipset is on the thing... Bluez and Affix seem to list chipsets that are supported rather than all the adapters that may use them.

If the chipset is similar to other devices (it probably will be) you might have a chance.

I'd say right now your chances of it working out of the box are like 10-30%.  With some work 40-70% and 30% chance of not working without you adding support (eg. writing code) yourself.

OK, I got to jump in here with a request for assistance.
My setup is a uk 5500 with Sharp 3.10 Rom, Bluemonkey CF card, Siemens s65 phone, UK O2 mobile account.

I followed the BlueZ howto at the top of this thread a while back and got a fair amount of success. I managed to pair up the Z & phone and allocate /dev/rfcomm0 to the pairing on the serial port channel of the s65. I created an IR dialup via the network wizard, then went into the equivalent script under /etc/ppp/peers and added in the /dev/rfcomm0 line at the top, set the phone MAC address in /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf
I don't think I ever managed to get the network connection going, though the devices did pair. (Annoyingly the phone and WinXP on my work laptop function without incident.)

I had to do a Z restart a while ago & since then, everything seems to have gone horribly wrong :-/ I'm pretty sure I kicked off the bluetooth with a manual restart.
When the phone BT is enabled & nearby, I get the pairing icon for a moment then it drops,. I run the network connection and it sits in 'modem initializing'.
Even though the phone is discoverable, I do an "sdptool browse" after sudo'ing to root, all I get is
Code: [Select]
Inquiring...
Inquiring failed
So why does that happen?
Do the symptoms I've described point to something obvious?

I think the rest of my woes are with getting a connection script sorted for GPRS to O2 using the s65, but let's not go there for now! I've not managed via IR yet.

If you use the same bluetooth cf card to pair your laptop, you loose the pair on the cellphone and thus need to repair the zaurus and cellphone.

after you successfully repair the 2 items, you need to go into settings->network and add a dial-up(bluetooth).  There is such a network protocol to add.  after you add this, then you go into account....

Mines is setup through at&t with digital access unlimited at 24 dollars a month.
no username and password but dialup is *99# (call service provider for this info)

init string is ATZ with bt device being the default /dev/rfcomm0
everything else is autodetect and you should just dial into it as soon as the icon appears in the taskbar when inserting the bluetooth card.

so What's new with everybody?

Still waiting to hear more success stories and tips on getting connected via gprs.
My problem is similar to alot of people: pairing is good, ininitializing is good, then the connected portion just hangs with nothing happening.

I'm using a socket card rev h with new 3100 standard rom with Moto razor on Rogers in Canada.

I have not found any posts on what what the chat file or PPP options etc... may be required.

I'm thinking that perhaps that is the problem.

Can people post their configurations for gprs access?

Thanks,

Bob

I had some trouble to get the Billionton CFBT02-B2 Bluetooth CF-Card working on my SL-C750 with original Sharp ROM. The problem was that I need to set the serial speed to 921600 and use the option "-s 921600" when calling hciattach.

To solve this problem I changed the script /etc/pcmcia/bluetooth so that the start code looks like this:

Code: [Select]
....
           UART_SET=`grep "$ID" $UART_CONF | cut -f2 -d":"`
           if [ "$UART_SET" != "" ]; then
              DEVICE=/dev/`echo $UART_SET | sed 's,.*/dev/,,'| cut -f1 -d" "`
              SPEEDOK=`echo $UART_SET | grep '^ *-s'`
              IRQ=`setserial $DEVICE | sed -e 's/.*IRQ: //'`
              setserial $DEVICE irq 0; setserial $DEVICE irq $IRQ
              if [ "$SPEEDOK" != "" ]; then
                 SPEED=`echo $UART_SET | sed 's,.*-s *,,' | cut -f1 -d" "`
                 setserial $DEVICE baud_base $SPEED
              fi
              /usr/sbin/hciattach $UART_SET
           fi
....

This allows to use the following line in /etc/bluetooth/uart:

Code: [Select]
"Compact Flash", "Bluetooth Card", "", "":-s 921600 /dev/ttyS3 bcsp
Maybe this helps others who have problems with this card.

Has there been any progress on the BT2000CF compatibility? In a previous thread it was reported to work on SUSE 9.2? Is any of what makes this work in SUSE portable to the zaurus? Also, as stated, this link at bluez says:

Ambicom (http://www.ambicom.com/products/air2net/bt2000cf.html)   BT2000C   CSR   Yes   ?   The following option is needed for hciattach initialize this card: /dev/ttyS3 bt2000c flow.

I am sorry for saying this, but to me (business user), this seems like "dark arts". I have no idea what to make of this.... ;(

might be worth looking at OpenTom and TomTom's own linux stuff as per https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=16826 to see what TomTom have done for bluetooth!

This is only for Sharp ROMs and variants of Sharp ROMs, excluding Cacko ROMs, that use the 2.4.18 kernel. So for example this includes Sharp ROMs on SL-5500, SL-5600, SL-6000, SL-C850, but NOT SL-3000.

Also uninstall all bluez packages before installing this one, including the bluez-csr-serial, which is no longer required with the new package.

So here is the new ipk (Note: the 1st, 3rd and 4th underscores [_] in the filename need to be changed to dashes [-] after downloading):
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=61520\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

The latest package works fine for the stock sharp kernel, but is not working for the fast kernel in 6K. I believe the 6k fast kernel is a preemptive one as in Tetsu's (actually they are the same, common zaurus kernel project). Tumnus, is it possible to build a bluez package for the preemptive kernel?

after installing the package, dmesg

New Bluetooth Drivers
« Reply #59 on: March 16, 2006, 11:24:05 am »
I just bought an AIRNET ABT201 USB dongle, and I haven't been able to get it to work on my Zaurus.  (I used bluez_zaurus_2.13_2.4.18_alpha3_arm.ipk, attached to the first post in this thread.) Has anybody else tried this dongle?

Zaurus 6000L, stock kernel 2.4.18, no other bluetooth software installed.

It worked with my desktop system, so I know there exist Linux drivers--although that was the 2.6 kernel.

I bought it because (a) it was $1 after rebate (newegg.com) and ( I wasn't able to find good information on what dongles work with Linux; the only reference I could find mentioned the supported chips, not the consumer devices.

Thanks!
