hi,

i'm going to buy a notebook in the near future, which supports bluetooth.
so my question is: is anyone working on bluetooth drivers or do i have to
forget about it ?

greets philipp

There's a bluetooth USB driver already in the kernel, and axis has a
nice bluetooth stack for Linux that's under the GPL (see
http://developer.axis.com/software/bluetooth/ for more info on it.)

What kind of bluetooth device is in the notebook?

Hope this helps,
