Once it works correctly in 2.6.x, someone might back port it to 2.4.x,=20

Everything you describe above is "known issues".

Hi all,
I'm trying to get my Linux machine to support audio to a headset. =
There's
been several replies in the last week to my questions about SCO support=20
in Linux. But I haven't found a package or instructions that explain how
to get it to work. A couple of people have said "hstest" or "scotest", =
but
nothing really works. Now I see the above posting. Does this mean I =
should=20
abandon my headset work until SCO is working ?
Regards,
Rich

Steps required to get a headset paired and play/record sounds from it: -
You have to have: -
kernel 2.6.4 or 2.6.3 with bluez patches. (It might work with 2.4.x
kernels, but I have no idea if it works or not with them.)
Make sure you are root user for all of the following.
modprobe hci_usb (If you have a usb dongle)
modprobe rfcomm
modprobe sco
hcid
sdpd
hciconfig hci0 up
bluepin <- Should return "ERR", if it returns some other error, get a
different version of bluepin.
remove any current "link_key" and "pin" files from /etc/bluetooth.
Get your headset into to "set up pairing" mode. (for me I just keep my
finger on the power on butter for 15 seconds, and it then flashes red/greed)
hcitool scan
That should return something like "00:0A:D9:48:00:6E HBH-30"
00:0A:D9:48:00:6E is the bdaddr and will be used in following commands,
so substitute your own bdaddr.
l2ping 00:0A:D9:48:00:6E <- This should pop up a window asking for
your pin.
Enter 0000 <- for may headset.
You should then get something like: -
l2ping 00:0A:D9:48:00:6E
Ping: 00:0A:D9:48:00:6E from 00:A0:96:1F:42:BF (data size 20) ...
20 bytes from 00:0A:D9:48:00:6E id 200 time 28.18ms
20 bytes from 00:0A:D9:48:00:6E id 201 time 20.93ms
20 bytes from 00:0A:D9:48:00:6E id 202 time 15.99ms
20 bytes from 00:0A:D9:48:00:6E id 203 time 27.02ms
This means you now have your devices paired.
This will create a "/etc/bluetooth/link_key" file.
hstest record test1.wav 00:0A:D9:48:00:6E 1
This should output: -
Voice setting: 0x0060
RFCOMM channel connected
SCO audio channel connected (handle 43, mtu 64)
AT*ECBP=?
AT+VGS=15
and then record sound from the headset.
hstest record test1.wav 00:0A:D9:48:00:6E 1
to playback to the sound on the headset.
Cheers
James

everything depends on what you are trying to achieve. In general we have
SCO support, but it is not perfect and not very easy to use.
