Return-Path: Subject: hci device configuration and 4.51 build problems From: pgodin To: Content-Type: text/plain Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2009 10:34:09 -0400 Message-ID: <1252074849.9913.5.camel@p11619> MIME-Version: 1.0 Sender: linux-bluetooth-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: Good day, I need some help trying to figure out how to properly configure a usb bluetooth dongle at startup. I have successfully cross-compiled bluez 4.50 for an arm processor using the 2.6.22 kernel on a custom filesystem . It starts using the udev rules provided (note that the usb device is always plugged in). I need the hci0 device to be up and to allow piscan mode using no timeout, no security and no authentification. Is it possible for the bluetoothd daemon to configure the device when it starts? I could not find any documentation on this matter. Only the main.conf file which states that setting DiscoverableTimeout to 0 should make the device discoverable forever. I can provide extended commands output if needed. Also, I have downloaded the latest version of bluez 4.51. The release note states that the build has now been fixed. I tried and I am not able to compile it. It seems that the --disable-audio argument to the configure script is ignored. When running make all, it tries to compile the audio plugin and can't because it needs alsa librairies. If someone need further information just let me know. I think this can be easily reproduced on any setup. Thank you in advance
