Reply-To: BlueZ development List-Id: BlueZ development List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: bluez-devel-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net Errors-To: bluez-devel-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net Hi everyone, The previous issue I reported back about "dfutool" not capable of backing up the firmware for a USB Bluetooth dongle (see below) is solved. It seems "dfutool" doesn't like VMware (v5.5.X). The native VMware USB port emulation (or USB pass through) interferes with the raw USB access required by dfutool. From a native OS (without any virtualization SW) everything works as expected.

How can I confirm if DFU is supported? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
