Re: Help for bluez-bluefw-1.0.

Thanks. Whats bluez modules will be needed for 2.6.7?

 Bluetooth I will use is USB dongle ePox and the courrent kernel is 2.6.7.
I configured 2.6.7 kernel and built it. and built bluez stuffs: hcidump, 
hciemu, libs2.7, pan1.1, utils2.7
And I modified /etc/modules.conf by adding lines:
alias bt-proto-0 l2cap
alias net-pf-31 bluez
alias bt-proto-2 sco
alias bt-proto-3 rfcomm
alias bt-proto-4 bnep
alais char-major-10-250 hci_uhci

BUT:
For my redhat 8 (my notebook PCG 2600TEK only can be installed redhat 8, 
redhat 9 and mandrake 9.2 could not be install), hciconfig could not be 
found, and using locate hciconfig, there is output. Marcel could tell me 
the reason and how should I do?
For my redhat 9 (my PC), hciconfig reports that Can't open HCI socket, 
Address family not surport by protocol, but for 2.4.25, it is ok. Would 
you like to tell me, whta sould I do? I want to build a bluetooth 
connection betweent my pc and my notebook. The both bluetooth drivers 
are BT-DG03 (USB ePOX).

Thanks a lot.
