[Bluez-users] rfcomm hell

[The Peach <smartart@tiscali.it>]

Hi all, this is my first time posting to this ml.

Since yesterday I've got a problem with bluetooth and in particular with rfcomm connection to a bluetooth interface: I hope this mailing list is ok for this to be posted.

Objective: connect to the mobile (a nokia 6680) and to the GPS reciver
The system runs a gentoo patched kernel version 2.6.17-r4 with bluez-libs 2.25 and bluez-utils 2.25-r1

The bluetooth dongle works well (in my opinion):
# hcitool scan

# l2ping 00:12:62:A8:12:FE

but:
# rfcomm bind 0 00:12:62:A8:12:FE
# rfcomm show all
rfcomm0: 00:12:62:A8:12:FE channel 1 clean
# rfcomm connect 0 00:12:62:A8:12:FE
Can't create RFCOMM TTY: Address already in use
# rfcomm release all
# rfcomm connect 1 00:12:62:A8:12:FE
Can't open RFCOMM device: No such file or directory

some configuration files:

	/etc/conf.d/bluetooth
[code]
HCID_ENABLE=true
HCID_CONFIG="/etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf"
SDPD_ENABLE=true
HIDD_ENABLE=false
HIDD_OPTIONS=""
HID2HCI_ENABLE=false
RFCOMM_ENABLE=true
RFCOMM_CONFIG="/etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf"
DUND_ENABLE=false
DUND_OPTIONS="--listen --persist"
PAND_ENABLE=false
PAND_OPTIONS="--listen --role NAP"
[/code]

	/etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf
[code]
options {
        autoinit yes;
        security auto;
        pairing multi;
        pin_helper /usr/bin/bluepin;
}
device {
        name "%h (%d)";
        class 0x3e0100;
        iscan enable; pscan enable;
        lm accept;
        lp rswitch,hold,sniff,park;
        #auth enable;
        #encrypt enable;
}
[/code]

I've tried also to mknod the device but there's nothing to do. when I launch rfcomm it will be deleted and it ends with a "No such file or directory".

Any hint??? This thing is driving me mad!!!
