Hi Tobias,

At your institute we are also trying to use an axis devboard to 
experiment with bluetooth applications. One of the primary goals is to 
get Bluez running on the board

I suppose you mean that you made the Kernel USB-ready for a USB 
Bluettooth adapter?

To my knowledge (and according to axis) there is no straightforward way 
to do this. The libs, I got to compile, but they do you no good all by 
themselves. I for my part have tried to autocompile the libs, utils etc 
with no luck for axis (using command-line lib invocation, config.site an 
shell parameters the way Marcel suggests). The only way I have found to 
work is to manually write a makefile from scratch which will then 
compile hciattach, hcitool...
hcid poses a problem because of the need for ybison to parse the conf file.
At this point the trouble is to get these things to compile using the 
axis top-level makefile so that the binaries may be flashed to the board 
and be used as applications

greets, Eric

Hi Eric, hi Marcel,

with "kernel part of bluez" I really mean this part of bluez,
which could be configured in the linux kernel.
After installing the Axis-DevBoard-Software, there isn't a submenu for
Bluetooth anymore
when running "make xconfig" ...


Right, the best way to install bluez, is to write an own
"Bluez-Toplevel-Makefile".
Read more about an example for a Makefile at:
http://mhonarc.axis.se/bluetooth-dev/msg04154.html

this must be a bug. What kernel do you use? Maybe it is some Axis OpenBT
specific cruft of the Cris architecture. If so, it must be removed and
patches are welcome.

Re: [Bluez-devel] Re: Bluez on Axis DevBoard 82

[Eric Chapman]

This only relates to the kernel sources within the axis devboard=20
developer environment. It seems to me, that this is wanted, because Axis=20
  are aware of it, since one of their developers pointed me there.

Tobias' description of the solution is also what I had to do. Speaking=20
of which: Tobias, how did you find the solution?

On an different note, Tobias pointed me to another person who is trying=20
to get a similar hardware config to work. His config freezes up upon=20
doing a hcitool scan (inq works fine). I am using a USB and a serial=20
Bluetooth interface. USB freezes on scan, the serial one doesn't. They=20
are both CSR HCI 16.4

Any Ideas?
