[Bluez-users] should I use hciattach for my USB dongle?

[hong zhang]

List,

I have a USB dongle connected to my desktop. "hciconfig hci0 up" returns "can't open HCI socket.:Address family not supported by protocol". 

For serial port, run "hciattach /dev/ttyS1 bcsp 115200". But my dongle is self initialized with its own eeprom with USB port. 

What should I do to setup my dongle and make it work with my cell phone?

either the hci_usb or btusb driver will be used. Make sure that all
modules are loaded.

Marcel,

Yes, it does not complain after loading hci_usb. 
Where can I get howto document to do send/receive picture, voice, etc. with other bluetooth device?

I google but do not get good information.
