[Bluez-devel] How do I pair?

[Bluez-devel] How do I pair?

[Ken Booth]

Hi guys,

I've just upgraded from the Suse 9.3 default bluez packages to:
bluez-libs-2.21.tar.gz
bluez-utils-2.21.tar.gz
bluez-pin-0.26.tar.gz
bluez-firmware-1.0.tar.gz
bluez-hcidump-1.26.tar.gz
bluez-hciemu-1.2.tar.gz

and my /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf still says
        name "Ken's PC";
and I've editted the /etc/bluetooth/pin to have the same PIN code, yet when I 
try to pair from my SE K750i, the PCs name is discovered as "Unknown" and the 
PIN is rejected.

What other files need updating after an upgrade?

Ken

show us "hciconfig -a" and run "hcidump -X -V".

Hi Marcel,

Thanks for the diagnostic tips. I found the a hcid.conf.rpmsave file with the 
corrects settings. It appears the upgrade changed the following parameters in 
the hcid.conf file
        pscan disable;
        iscan disable;
        pin_helper /usr/bin/bluepin;

I fixed the problem by restoring them to
        pscan enable;
        iscan enable;
        pin_helper /bin/bluepincat;
(the PC identifying itself as "Unknown" is just a signal quality problem - too 
many walls between computer and phone)

PS: What do pscan and iscan do?

Ken.

the page scan (pscan) sets your device to connectable and inquiry scan
(iscan) makes your device discoverable.
