[Bluez-users] Installing Bluez

[Marco Trudel]

Hello everyone

I've to install bluez on an arm system with a 2.6.7 kernel.
So I've to activate bluez in the kernel, install bluez-libs and bluez-utils.

How to activate bluez support in the kernel?
Is it enough to select (make menuconfig):
Networking Support -> Bluetooth subsystem support
USB Support -> USB Bluetooth TTY support

Or do I have to apply a patch from bluez.org/patches.html?
Is it possible to leave the kernel as it is and make a module for bluez?

Will there be any problems to compile the libs and utils on an arm processor?

kind regards
Marco Trudel

you can't select both drivers. Read the help text of the config entries.

You should use 2.6.10 and apply that patch. The patch for 2.6.7 is
outdated.

It is possible, but not supported.

Not that I know of, but I don't have a ARM platform for testing.

Ok. I'll use the patch. (It's easier anyway :-))
Can I apply the 2.6.10 patch to my 2.6.7 kernel? Or do I have to use the 
2.6.10 kernel?

Hello Marcel

I expect it to pe for the 2.6.10 Kernel and hope that it's usuable with the 
2.6.7 one...

kind regards
Marco

the latest 2.6.7 patch includes almost the same of the Bluetooth
subsystem that is in 2.6.8. So you miss the patches for two kernel
releases and actually I counted them. There are 33 patches between the
2.6.7 and 2.6.10 kernel. The ones from the patch-2.6.10-mh2 are not
included in this count.

Regards

Marcel

Hi Heejune,

> When anyone runs "sdpd" in arm-based platform, the process will dies immediately.
> It is because the cross-compiler problem (maybe due to the one path linking of the linker).
> To solve the problem, move the "sdp_attrid_comp_func" in the sdp.c (bluezlib) on the top of the file.
> OW. the simbol will be linked at 0 address, and got a segmentation fault!

what about a patch in unified diff format?

Regards

Marcel
