I have upgraded the bluez-modules. But the problem persists:
To recap,
***********************************************************
Problem:
    lx1 runs rctest -s <bt_addr of lx2>
    lx2 freezes

    No problem with l2test.
***********************************************************

The current configuration of lx2 is :

Hi Swarup,

I have bluez with bluez-utils-2.7 on two RH 8.0 systems (lx1 and lx2).


please upgrade to bluez-utils-2.8 first. What kernel do you use?

When I start rctest -r on lx1 without starting rctest -s on lx2, lx2 hangs
and I have to switch it off and on to restart. This happens EVERY TIME
I try this.


I don't get the point how lx2 can hang when you listen at lx1. Are these
two different machines or two dongles connected to the same machine?

This does not happen when I run l2test in any way. Does it prove that
there is a problem with RFCOMM? I have not seen this problem in
the mailing list. If I have missed it, please inform.


Actually I don't know. Show us "hcidump -x" from both machines.

Regards

Marcel
