I tried a couple of things over the last few days:
1. Tried to find the archives to search for an earlier
sco-flowcontrol patch that might have been submitted by Fabien - no
luck, where are the archives?
2. I compiled bluez-libs/bluez-utils 3.9 to see if plugz would work
better with this - I ran into the same pin problem as before in that
I don't get a pin pop-up on my machine. If I set security to auto in
hcid.conf then I can pair with my cell phone since I can enter a pin
on the phone but this does not work with a bluetooth headset since I
cannot enter a pin and hcid just sits there waiting...
# hcid -n
hcid[32062]: Bluetooth HCI daemon
hcid[32062]: HCI dev 0 registered
hcid[32062]: HCI dev 0 already up
hcid[32062]: Device hci0 has been added
hcid[32062]: Starting security manager 0
hcid[32062]: Device hci0 has been activated
hcid[32062]: link_key_request (sba=00:10:C6:56:F4:9F, dba=00:0A:D9:E8:4A:65)
btsco works fine with the same setup and bluez-libs/utils 2.15, but I
would rather use plugz so any help would be welcome.
Regards
John

I have seen something like this, where the problem appeared to be that
the pin helper could not pop up its window due to authorization failure.
If this is the case, it helps to "xhost +".
