 |
|
I've emerged gnome-bluetooth and I can't lauch gnome-bluetooth-manager because it says:
| Code: | Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/gnomebt/manager.py", line 274, in ?
BTManager ().main ()
File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/gnomebt/manager.py", line 85, in __init__
if not self.btctl.is_initialised():
gobject.GError: Can't get device id of hci0 |
running hcitool scan gives me:
| Code: | | Device is not available: Address family not supported by protocol |
I assume this is about the ipv6 protocol, which I've set disabled by default in my make.conf. The question is: what do I have to reemerge to get ipv6 support for Bluetooth (or - if my guess was wrong - what to do next? |

Looks like your bluetooth dongle isn't supported by your system (it could be just that the modules are not loaded, services not started, or both). There's a convenience /etc/init.d/bluetooth script, that starts various things for you.

I understand it may not be a comfortable solution for you, but I'm using obexftp and sobexsrv to get things to and from my phone. It's perfect for my needs (minimalistic X environment, xterminal work). I never got gnome-bt working correctly, had better success with kdebluetooth, but right now i'm using neither KDE nor Gnome.
