[Bluez-users] usb-device cannot be found by other bluetooth devices

[Smobbl_Bobbl]

hi!

can someone help me to make my usb-stick "searchable" by other devices?

i installed mandriva linux 2007, with all the bluetooth things.
i can send files to other devices (handy, pda...), but if i search in my 
handy for other near devices, i cannot find the usb-stick!
if i want the handy to pair with the pc (initiated by pc), the handy 
says i have to input my password. if i do so, my phone shows a 
progressbar, but in the end it fails.

can someone help me to make my usb-stick "searchable" by other devices?

thank you

do you have a passkey-agent registered?

use "apitest" to set the DiscoverableTimeout to 0:

    apitest SetDiscoverableTimeout 0

then set your device to discoverable:

    apitest SetMode discoverable

verify your settings with

    apitest IsDiscoverable
    apitest GetMode
    apitest GetDiscoverableTimeout

Alternatively, make sure that hscan and pscan are enabled for that device.

IIRC this will still be disabled after DiscoverableTimeout seconds.
