Doing this we found that some responses received from different remote = devices were mixed, we obtained the same device name from two different = remote devices. The following is a simple way to check this behaviour: --------------------------------------------------------------- [root@localhost~]# hcitool -i hci0 name 00:12:D1:DB:9A:E3 Nokia E70 [root@localhost~]# hcitool -i hci0 name 00:13:FD:FC:DE:50 Nokia 6680 [root@localhost~]# hcitool -i hci0 name 00:12:D1:DB:9A:E3 & hcitool -i = hci0 name 00:13:FD:FC:DE:50 [1] 14223 Nokia E70 Nokia E70 [1]+ Done hcitool -i hci0 name 00:12:D1:DB:9A:E3 --------------------------------------------------------------- - The first command gets the right name of our E70 phone: "Nokia E70" - The second one also gets the right name of our 6680 phone: "Nokia 6680" - But if we invoke both commands concurrently, both "hcitool" calls get = the same name as the device response: "Nokia E70" "Nokia E70" Are we doing something wrong? Is there any technical limitation related to this kind of requests so we = must to do these calls serially? Is this a bug?
