Hi all
I have a new Bluetooth USB dongle
I want to use it to connect to my phone
I connect it to USB and type usbview I see it (hci_usb ) in red color
does that mean it need a driver ?
when i type hcitool dev (display local device ) 
it answers back with the 12 digits code of the dongle
but when i type hcitoolscan to discover my phone it scans and discovers
nothing and time out
any suggestions ? blueZ are opobex tool are installed.
 
Hciconfig -a gives  :

I followed all the steps written in documentations.
Is there no other way simpler than this ?
I am using Redhat 9 with 2.4.20-8 Kernel
Upgrading the kernel is a big hassle

then you should buy yourself a CSR based dongle.

Just a small question about that: I thought it isn't possible to use 
snd-bt-sco with a non-CSR dongle at all - independent of the kernel version?!
Did I miss something here?

in general it should work with every dongle, but so far the best results
are still with CSR based dongles. However I am happy for any patch that
makes other dongles work, too.

That's my only chance to make my bluefritz!2.0 dongle work some day. I 
haven't used it so far...
