[Bluez-users] Still couldn't get AmbiCom BT2000E card to work...

[Eran <eran_l@over-here.org>]

Hello,


I know this is a problem that's have been on this list for more than 
once. However, since I gave it somre more time trying to make the card 
work without success, I would really appreciate it if someone could take 
a look into my description and let me know if he/she has any insights.


I have an AmbiCom BT2000E card. The identification:


  product info: "AmbiCom,Inc", "BT2000E", "Bluetooth PC/CF Card"
  manfid: 0x022d, 0x2000


Inside /etc/pcmcia/bluetooth.conf:

card "AmbiCom BT2000E Bluetooth Card"
  version "AmbiCom,Inc", "BT2000E"
  manfid 0x022d, 0x2000
  bind "serial_cs"


So far, so good.

hciattach /dev/ttyS1 ericsson

would return with no errors, however hcid will be unable to take device 
up and return a timeout.

The MAC address of the device would be all 00's.


I knew, from the past, that a kernel patch may help. I found it on this 
list and eventually applied it from:

http://www.summet.com/x31/socket.html


Still, hcid timed out:

Aug 25 19:55:58 hulud hcid[2954]: Sending read scan enable command 
failed: Connection timed out (110)
Aug 25 19:56:00 hulud hcid[2954]: Can't read address for hci0: 
Connection timed out (110)
Aug 25 19:56:07 hulud hcid[3108]: Can't init device hci0: Connection 
timed out (110)


Then I stumbled into this post to the list: 
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=11189831

So I tried setserial /dev/ttyS1 baud_base with various values, low as 
well as high, each time - trying hciattach -s <selected speed> 
/dev/ttyS1 ericsson.
Each and every time I had the same problem - hcid could not bring the 
interface up.
I've also tried appending a speed to hciattach, to no avail.

I forgot to mention that I'm on a 2.6.17.11 kernel.
Has this card been reported to work for anyone on a 2.6 kernel?

I will appreciate any help anyone can give.

Thank you all in advance,
ERan
