[Bluez-users] Pairing in FC4 without gnome or kde?

[Bluez-users] Pairing in FC4 without gnome or kde?

[David Wuertele]

I've done a complete install of FC4 but I do not run Gnome or KDE
(they just drive me nuts).  Now I'm trying to pair my headset.  I
think there is this gnome-bluetooth-manager thingie that is supposed
to prompt you for your pin when it gets a message on the dbus, but it
isn't working for me, and I suspect it is because I'm not running
Gnome or KDE.

So I tried writing my own pin script:

  #!/bin/sh
  # leave a trace so I know what's going on
  echo $@ >> /tmp/zeropin.log
  # return the pin for my headset
  echo "PIN:0000"

I changed my /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf to comment out the dbus system
and use my script, like this:

	# D-Bus PIN helper
	#dbus_pin_helper;
	pin_helper /usr/local/bin/zeropin;

I then did "service stop bluetooth" and "service start bluetooth", and
then put my headset in pairing mode.  But nothing happens.

Can someone give this poor non-gnome non-kde user a clue?

FWIW, here's what bluez I have installed:

  # rpm -qa | grep -i bluez
  bluez-libs-devel-2.15-1
  bluez-libs-2.15-1
  bluez-utils-2.15-7

You've got to search for the headset and connect to it to trigger the 
authentication process. Keep an eye on the syslog just in case something went 
wrong with the pin helper setup.

Hi
I have the same problem... How to connect to the device to trigger the
authentication process?

You've got to search for the headset and connect to it to trigger the=20
