Morning Guys,
 
First of all thanks for your time on answering this query, I have a
couple of questions that I need asking, I'm completely new to BlueZ and
Still quite fresh to Linux so you'll have to excuse my naivety.
 
I currently have a Linux box running BlueZ and running a USB Dongle from
3Com, and everything seems to run perfectly fine, I'm able to scan for
devices, send files to them etc etc.
 
Now, I'm looking to connect a Serial Adapter from SENA, which I've been
told operates on a CSR chipset, and connects to the back of my unit
using a RS-232 connector.
 
I've spent some time reading through all the documentation I can find
and seem to be running across the concept of 'hciattach' for connecting
this device so I can process commands through hcitool to my device.
 
I've also read a lot about ensuring I have the latest Kernel patch
running on my system. However I have no idea on how to check my current
Kernel version, or how to install the latest version onto the box.
 
Can you please offer some advice on how to check my kernel, install the
latest addition and attach my RS-232 adapter to my BlueZ interface so I
can use that rather than my USB dongle?
 
If there are any additional steps that are likely to be needed can you
please point me in the right direction?
 
Many Thanks Guys,
 
Rob Rawlins
