[Bluez-devel] voice (SCO) applications

[Bluez-devel] voice (SCO) applications

[Reza Naima]

I was looking for, and couldn't find, any application for linux that
supported voice -- as in using your computer as a handsfree for a mobile
phone.  I know this is possible with the drivers that came with the
dbt-120 and windows.  And from my understanding, there is kernel driver
support for it, but does anyone know of an application that exists that
is able to act as a handsfree device?

Thanks,
Reza

p.s. if none exists, does anyone have any idea of how to go about
building such an application?

I started with a handsfree applications as a part of the KDE Bluetooth 
Framework (kde-bluetooth.sf.net) a while ago, but it's not working too well 
at the moment. It uses arts as a sound backend, which turned out to be no 
good idea.  Maybe using alsa directly would give better results, but that 
would be harder to configure (remember, we are targeting KDE users ;) I also 
had rather mixed results depending on the kernel and bluetooth dongle I used. 
Since I don't have too much time at the moment and not too many people were 
complaining about kbthandsfree, it is basically on hold and waiting for me or 
someone else to continue the work.

regards
Fred

Hi Reza,
besides Fred, I also wrote a (commandline) handsfree app - have a look at
