Bluetooth: activation?

Hi !

 

For 2 weeks i bought a bluetooth dongle to synchronise my mobile phone with my computer (SonyE T610 & a pc with mdk 10.0 official). Unfortunately it still doesn't work. There is a lot to read about bluetooth on the net, but i didn't find the solution.

 

I installed bluez, kdebluetooth and obex. As I connect the dongle, there is a message from kdebluetooth "an adaptator was found". Harddrake recognizes a bluetooth transmitter too, but indicates there is no module.

So as i tried to send a file to the mobile phone with kbtobexclient, it is not possible to search a device. This section is not activated.

 

Maybe some config files must be edited, but how?

Do you have any idea?

I use the gnome-bluetooth system with the bluez stack. I also have a T610 and I sync just fine.

 

You should have hcitools installed. Try:

$ hcitool hci0 up
$ hcitool scan

Post results. Once we get the dongle up and we manage to scan for your device we can get to partnerships, object pushing and evolution (all of which works well).

This is a complete guess, but it might be worth trying to find out what the module for this should be (google is your friend here) and loading it manually - or at least checking if it is already loaded.

 

Are you familiar with loading modules? If not post back and we'll sort you out

I am absolutely not familiar with loading modules.

 

But I read somewhere a command for a usb flash disk

tail -f /var/log/messages

It might help.

 

before pluging the dongle:

As I plugged the dongle kbluetoothd didnt say " a bluetooth adaptator was found" but this:

Could not assign a channel to service kdemusedsrv

details:

KBluetoothD was unable to find an unused Rfcomm channel for the service kbemusedsrv, so other devices won't be able to access that service.

Possible reasons:

Several services are configured to use the same channel.

Other bluetooth services are blocking the ports.

Checklist:

kbemusedsrv will try to use channels form 27 to 28 - are they all used by other services?

Does /proc/bluetooth/rfcomm show more listening sockets than the bluetooth services tab in the control center?

 

I looked in rfcomm, there is 2 documents "dlc" and "sock" they both have a size of 0 octet.

 

Hope it helps.

 

PS: sorry mods, for posting in the wrong section

OK - all of these must be run as root.

 

 

lsmod

displays a list of currently loaded modules

modprobe

loads a module and all the modules it depends on

modprobe -r

removes a module and all the modules thjat depend on it

 

Use google to find out what module is required for your bluetooth card and then post back with the results of playing with these commands. It may be that you simply need to load the correct module...

Hi, back again!

 

I found on this page that I need for my broadcom dongle the "hci_usb" and bluefw" driver.

 

Doing "lsmod" gives this:

hci_usb seems to be loaded, bluetooth too, but nothing about bluefw, which strange is, because I installed the bluez-bluefw package.

making modprobe returns " Fatal: module not found"

 

I'll go crazy :wall:
