Re: [Bluez-devel] BlueZ integration to LINUX kernel (ARM)

Robin,

once again, the work has been done already. You really need to study
the documentation and configure properly. If you have a bluetooth
module connected to a UART and it understands one of the supported HCI
protocols then you don't need to write any kind of driver you just need
to tell the bluetooth subsystem which UART to talk to, what protocol to
talk with and the baud rate etc. Typing 'man hciattach' will explain
this well enough. You would also do well to buy a decent book on Bluetooth.

I would advise you to direct further questions to the manufacturer of
your Bluetooth module. You will need to know which HCI protocol it
supports, the baud rate, handshaking etc.
