I am experimenting with bluetooth with SL5.4 (yes, I know it is
not the latest) and having trouble locating relevant tutorials,
documentation, etc. on the web. Most linux bluetooth info is
missing, out of date, KDE/debian/ubuntu centric, etc.
Bluetooth may "just work" if the hardware is right. But a list
of currently available and linux compatable USB bluetooth dongles
is also missing. For example, the iogear GBU421 I just bought
has a different USB ID than that claimed to work on one of the
linux USB device lists.
Any suggestions for RHEL/SL/CentOS 5 linux bluetooth docs,
tutorials, interpretation of error messages, etc? When I've
read the relevant information, I can start asking proper questions.
Keith
PS: And no, I'm not going to upgrade SL until I have a month
to do so. I use too many fragile apps that are broken by
upgrades and dependency conflicts, and fixing them takes time.
If I wanted to spend my life upgrading distros instead of
doing something productive, I would run Fedora.
