Hello,

I'm posting here because there doesn't seem to be any more the 
bluez-users mailing list.

I have a very optimized and constrained embedded device and I would like 
to use rfcomm WITHOUT dbus and bluetoothd daemon.

The following works:

dbus-daemon --system --fork
bluetoothd
sdptool add --channel=22 SP
rfcomm listen /dev/rfcomm0 22

but I would like to use rfcomm without dbus and bluetoothd running. How 
could I do that?

For reference, hidd works without bluetoothd so it's possible to 
associate and have some bluetooth communication in the kernel directly 
from a user-space application without bluetoothd running.

Many thanks in advance for any idea,

Grégoire
