Thanks for your reply. I actually did contact the Axis tech support and
they never got back to me, hence my post here. I had some other questions
regarding the kernel version and applying patches to the kernel for axis.
Both questions I got responses from axis, but this last one when I mentioned
BlueZ in the email, I have not heard a word back. I doubt they'd want to
help with BlueZ development. Anyhow, if I ever figure things out I will
definitely post a how to online somewhere.

I have never done this before. Ask the Axis guys directly to provide you
with more information. They should drop their OpenBT in favour of BlueZ
and help people using it or ask them to send me a bunch of their boards
for testing.
