Return-Path: Subject: bnep module in 2.6.27 fails to provide bnep0 device From: Mick Semb Wever To: linux-bluetooth@vger.kernel.org Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg="pgp-sha1"; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="=-IokPgmRJh5hc5DZtKhIW" Date: Sat, 03 Jan 2009 12:52:47 +0100 Message-Id: <1230983567.6118.25.camel@localhost> Mime-Version: 1.0 Sender: linux-bluetooth-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: --=-IokPgmRJh5hc5DZtKhIW Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable This used to work for me but after some system updates is now broken. I'm using the following combination on gentoo: linux-2.6.27 (64-bit) bluez-libs-3.36 bluez-utils-3.36 Restarting bluetooth, with the usb bluetooth dongle in, gives in the system log: [hcid] Bluetooth HCI daemon [hcid] Parsing /etc/bluetooth/main.conf failed: No such file or directory [hcid] Starting SDP server [hcid] Unix socket created: 11 [hcid] Registered manager path:/org/bluez/audio [hcid] Registered input manager path:/org/bluez/input [hcid] Starting experimental netlink support [kernel] pan0: Dropping NETIF_F_UFO since no NETIF_F_HW_CSUM feature.

I have googled around without any luck at all. The bnep module is definitely loaded, i have tried reloading it, and restarting the system. And recompiling the kernel with modules built-in instead. I'm quite lost here and hoping anybody can help, or instruct what more information is required. ~mck ps this was original posted to http://gmane.linux.network which i presumed, too late, is an advanced development list. I gather this is the right list as it is the conglomeration of the previous bluez.users and bluez.devel lists. --=20 "Don't use Outlook.
