Subject: [Bluez-users] Pairing a phone with linux and windows at same time

Hi

When I pair my phone from Windows, I get an error when try to connect from
Linux and viceversa.

Windows and Linux are in the same computer.

Is there a way to solve this?

Thanks

The problem is both operating systems share the same adapter but don't
share any of the state that is built up during pairing.

You could change between two bluetooth adapters on your computer so
the phone doesn't get confused. There are even hacks where you use
just one adapter and temporarily change the mac addr on the adapter
when under linux.
