Ok rfcomm is the transport protocol?
In the conf file does the 'device' describe the otherside ie headset, phone etc?
or is it the address of dongle?
It says just 'device' as comment in rfcomm.conf!
To use a headset with my computer and a bt dongle does it require this device be
defined in that file?


The thing I found redundant and confusing is that when communicating with a remote bt like a headset the address is set both in rfcomm.conf and as arg to btsco? Is my understanding incorrect? I did not see clear description of rfcomm.conf anywhere.

Well this is an official place I guess but it has little?
I am not suggesting who should but thought an official place might
contain at least the most recent pertinant info.
To tell me to do it is a chicken/egg thing I know nothing.
