Greetings again;
by blindly modprobing just about everything in /lib/modules/`uname -
r`/kernel/drivers/bluetooth and retrying blueman-manager, I finally hit the
magic twanger in the right place and its working.
Now, it seems to me I should be able to add a stanza in
/etc/udev/rules.d/bluetooth-serial.rules to make this completely automatic
on boot.
Here is what I have modprobed now that makes it work:
[root@coyote bluetooth]# lsmod |grep rfcomm
rfcomm 23697 23
l2cap 32434 18 rfcomm,bnep
bluetooth 39235 11 btsdio,hci_uart,rfcomm,sco,bnep,l2cap,btusb
What would a new stanza for udev/rules.d/bluetooth-serial.rules that will
make this work for every boot look like for this bt button/dongle?
