Hello Listmembers, i had created a file with the following content: /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf: rfcomm0 { # # Automatically bind the device at startup bind yes; # # # Bluetooth address of the device device 00:1D:F6:05:B3:98; # # # RFCOMM channel for the connection channel 3; # # # Description of the connection comment "Samsung SGH-U700"; } Iam using Fedora 8 and Gnome Desktop the Device is already paired via the Gnome Bluetooth Pin Helper Stuff. The Configuration file create for me on boot a device with the following permissions and ownership: crw------- 1 drindt root 216, 0 1. Feb 19:57 /dev/rfcomm0 As frontend iam using gnome-ppp for dialin. but the problem is that i must use gnome-ppp as root to get an internet connection. if iam starting gnome-ppp as user drindt then i get the message after klicking connect that the device is busy. Iam confused about because /dev/rfcomm0 has IMHO correct permissions and ownership for using as regular user. Another Thing is iam using a EDR capable Hama nano Bluetooth Dongle lsusb told me that it is: Bus 006 Device 002: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode) but when iam using the FTP Service for instance iam using nautilus-sendto the filetransfer for a file with 3MB like an mp3 clip needs more than some minutes. the phone is also capable of EDR and can talk with up to 3Mb/s and its only some centimeters from the dongle away. here are the versions from my bluetooth stuff: bluez-libs-3.20-1.fc8 bluez-utils-3.20-4.fc8 bluez-gnome-0.14-8.fc8 bluez-utils-alsa-3.20-4.fc8 bluez-utils-cups-3.20-4.fc8 Linux 2.6.23.14-107.fc8 #1 SMP Mon Jan 14 21:37:30 EST 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Thanks for all suggestions. -Daniel
