But as you already read in the archives there are some problems. With 2.6 some serial cards work and some don't. I guess that this is a problem in the new serial layer of 2.6. So choosing the right card will be a non-trivial problem, because most of them are serial based and you can't be sure that they work until you tested them. If you don't care what Bluetooth chip is used I suppose that you go with the Anycom CF card (bluecard_cs driver).
