Dear Marcel,

Thanks a lot for your reply.=20

Then, is it necessary (or not necessary) to configure/install the BlueZ
packages on my Linux box which uses the Fedora Core 3 with 2.6.9-1.667
kernel version on IA32 machine?

I have gone through the following links (by you) and other links.
http://www.holtmann.org/linux/bluetooth
http://www.bluez.org/faq.html
http://www.bluetooth.com
http://www.bluetooth.org
http://www.bluez.org
http://affix.sourceforge.net
http://www.tik.ee.ethz.ch/~beutel/pub/talks/20010402_bt_adequate_lan.pdf
http://tuxmobil.org/bluetooth_cell_apps.html

If possible, please send me a link that explains about the BLUETOOTH
architecture on Linux boxes.

Thanks you very much
Thanks and Regards,
Srinivas G

you need only to install bluez-libs, bluez-utils and bluez-hcidump.

You should first read something about how communication with Bluetooth
works in general, because otherwise I can't help you. Pick a profile
that you wanna use or describe how your communication should work.
