Hi
I have a Nokia HDW-3 and a Belkin F8T009 USB dongle.
This is mainly just a report that Belkin have reverted to using Broadcom
chips
I guess I'm returning this one since I wanted to use SCO to get a voice
connection to my headset. It actually connects perfectly and I can see
the button presses coming back - just no sound. Searching the archives
seems to indicate that Broadcom = no SCO = no sound (please yell if I'm
wrong)
snd-bt-sco installed fine and I could run btsco and alsamixer picked up
the Headset as hw1,0.
Oh, it was a bit misleading that I get the following during the ./btsco
-v output:
...
i/o needed: connecting sco...
connected SCO channel
Done setting sco fd
...
it certainly implied that SCO was working.
My system is running kernel 2.6.14.5.

Marcel, cc'ed you in case you want to update the page on:
http://www.holtmann.org/linux/bluetooth/features.html
Also, by the way, you say on:
http://www.holtmann.org/linux/bluetooth/devices.html
"If the HCI Version field is filled in this table, then this device
should also work perfect with Linux."
You may want to change that since clearly only CSR chipsets (IIRC)
support SCO.
Also - thanks for all the work on BlueZ - I'm looking forward to getting
another (CSR) dongle and getting it working.
David
