I have been tinkering around with bluetooth on my Powerbook G4 for ~2 hours.

I have The following kernel modules loaded

hci_usb rfcomm l2cap bluetooth

I also have several pkgs installed.

bluez-bluefw bluez-libs bluez-utils & gnome-bluetooth-manager

I have edited /etc/conf.d/bluetooth to look like so
Code:
# Bluetooth configuraton file

# Start of hcid (allowed values are "true" and "false")
HCID_ENABLE=true

# Config file for hcid
HCID_CONFIG="/etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf"

# Start sdpd (allowed values are "true" and "false")
SDPD_ENABLE=true

# Start hidd (allowed values are "true" and "false")
HIDD_ENABLE=true

# Arguments to hidd
HIDD_OPTIONS=""

# Run hid2hci (allowed values are "true" and "false")
HID2HCI_ENABLE=false

# Bind rfcomm devices (allowed values are "true" and "false")
RFCOMM_ENABLE=true

# Config file for rfcomm
RFCOMM_CONFIG="/etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf"

# Start dund (allowed values are "true" and "false")
DUND_ENABLE=false

# Arguments to dund
DUND_OPTIONS="--listen --persist"

# Start pand (allowed values are "true" and "false")
PAND_ENABLE=false

# Arguments to pand
PAND_OPTIONS="--listen --role NAP"


This kicks off just fine.. except for one things happens at this time.. I lose my bluetooth apple mouse..

hciconfig shows the device
Code:
Lappy dashnu # hciconfig
hci0:   Type: USB
        BD Address: 00:0D:93:07:B5:79 ACL MTU: 192:8 SCO MTU: 64:8
        UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN
        RX bytes:35723 acl:190 sco:0 events:812 errors:0
        TX bytes:9024 acl:189 sco:0 commands:311 errors:0



I can see my two devices with a scan..

Code:
Lappy dashnu # hcitool scan
Scanning ...
        00:12:8A:A9:8A:E1       Motorola Phone
        00:0A:95:02:6E:58       Bluetooth Mouse


However I cant seem to do anything with either of them :p I can ping my phone but not my mouse.

I tried to set up two RFCOMM devices by changing /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf
Code:
#
# RFCOMM configuration file.
#
# $Id: rfcomm.conf,v 1.1 2002/10/07 05:58:18 maxk Exp $
#

rfcomm2 {
        # Automatically bind the device at startup
        bind yes;

        # Bluetooth address of the device
        device 00:0A:95:02:6E:58;

        # RFCOMM channel for the connection
        channel 2;

        # Description of the connection
        comment "Apple Mouse Bluetooth device";
}

rfcomm1 {
        # Automatically bind the device at startup
        bind yes;

        # Bluetooth address of the device
        device 00:12:8A:A9:8A:E1;

        # RFCOMM channel for the connection
        channel 1;

        # Description of the connection
        comment "dashnu's Motorola device";
}


First when I try to connect to the mouse I get the following error
Code:
Lappy dashnu # rfcomm connect 2
Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Connection refused



My phone I can get as far as typing in a PIN and things look ok it saves it... but as soon as I do that I get this error..

Code:

Lappy dashnu # rfcomm connect 1
Can't create RFCOMM TTY: Address already in use


As far as gnome-bluetooth-manager goes It can see the phone and mouse but the rest of the app is rendered useless.

gnome-obex-send can also see my phone and mouse but My phone reports an error.

Quote:
Failed Connection Interupted


Does anyone have any suggestion for me?

TIA

...bump

*edit, The mouse is a hidd device not a rfcomm device so hidd --connect XX:XX:XX:XX worked.

gnome-obex-send file.name will now send files to my phone.

gnome-obex-server fails to start for me..

Code:
dashnu@Lappy ~ $ gnome-obex-server

** (gnome-obex-server:14063): WARNING **: OBEX server register error: -1

** (gnome-obex-server:14063): WARNING **: Unable to initialize OBEX source

** (gnome-obex-server:14063): WARNING **: Couldn't initialise OBEX listener


Not sure if this is a bug or user error, will investigate further.

Off to try to set up a internet connection through my phone now.
