Dear bluez users,<br>
<br>
In order to make my laptop (OS: Fedora Core 2) communicate with some
bluetooth device through an ANYCOM Bluetooth USB Adapter, I have
installed the Bluez packages (bluez-libs bluez-libs bluez-utils
bluez-hcidump bluez-utils-cups).<br>
<br>
But, when trying to detect nearby active bluetooth devices, using
&quot;hcitool scan&quot; non of the devices are detected, wheras the same
configuration works very well with windows.<br>
<br>
so, that&#39;s what I get on my terminal:<br>
<br>
<div style="margin-left: 40px;">&gt;[root@localhost root]# hciconfig<br>
&gt;hci0:&nbsp;&nbsp; Type: USB<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; BD Address: 00:16:38:CA:56:A8 ACL MTU: 1017:8&nbsp; SCO MTU: 64:1<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; UP RUNNING<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; RX bytes:93 acl:0 sco:0 events:12 errors:0<br>
&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; TX bytes:296 acl:0 sco:0 commands:12 errors:0<br>
&gt;&nbsp;<br>
&gt;[root@localhost root]# hcitool scan<br>
&gt;Scanning ...<br>
&gt;Inquiry failed: Connection timed out<br>
</div>
<br>
One more thing is that, when loading the bluez module it says that the module is not found<br>
<br>
<div style="margin-left: 40px;">&gt;[root@localhost root]# modprobe bluez<br>
</div>
<div style="margin-left: 40px;">&gt;FATAL: Module bluez not found.<br>
</div>
<br>
<br>
It would be very much helpful if someone knows how to solve the problem.<br>
<br>
Thanks so much in advance,<br>
Menouar<br>
