"ChromeLinux" HCI name, and Alias

"ChromeLinux" HCI name, and Alias

[Bastien Nocera]

Hey,

Using bluez 5.43 on Fedora 25, I get:

$ hciconfig hci0 name | grep Name
	Name: 'ChromeLinux_900A'

When the PrettyHostname is:
$ grep PRETTY /etc/machine-info 
PRETTY_HOSTNAME=classic

I grepped through a bunch of things, including the firmware, the kernel
sources, and bluez, but couldn't find the source of this name.

I'm also fairly certain that the hostname plugin doesn't work, as it's
trying to talk to services which wouldn't be started yet. Is there any
reason why this code can't poke /etc/machine-info directly?

Cheers

I believe you use an "old" build of Chrome. If you update to recent
version, this issue won't happen.
As you can see at
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/c8901b4dbb6518940e940213c1f94774fc04d5aa,
I've fixed this 8 months ago.

And it seems that the fix only became available a couple of days ago in
Google Chrome 55, which reached the stable channel.

That's weird ;( It should be have been Google Chrome 51 according to
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/c8901b4dbb6518940e94/chrom=
e/VERSION

The name got saved in the adapter's settings. I edited the "settings"
file for my adapter and it works as expected now.

Thanks
