It makes looking at what the PC thinks is plugged into the = USB ports a lot easier. Until I had the proper drivers installed, sometimes= the system would see the dongle, but not properly identify it. I could tel= l it wasn't right by what usbview thought was plugged in. Once it was prope= rly detected, usbview called the dongle a BCM2033 and said the manufacturer= was BroadComm Corp.=20 To get the D-Link to work, I simply was using the latest 9.0 Red Hat releas= e with latest updates to all the BlueZ files you mentioned. I didn't actual= ly recompile my kernel. To get the proper drivers the D-Link needs, I also = had to update the hotplug driver to the latest version. (http://sourceforg= e.net/projects/linux-hotplug/)=20 You might also want to check out your /etc/Bluetooth/hcid.conf file. I edit= mine a little to get the system to work. I ended up setting pairing mode t= o multi, but I am not really sure if this made any difference or what effec= t it had.=20 Give the above changes a try. Until you get the usbview to properly identif= y the dongle, I wouldn't even worry about the hciconfig command. Let me kno= w if this helps and were you get to. I will be glad to try and help some mo= re if your still stuck.

I have patched the kernel with marcel holtman's kernel patch and have compiled-in all protocols. When I do a "cat /proc/bus/usb/devices | grep 'e0'", I get the following: D: Ver=3D 1.01 Cls=E0(unk. ) Sub=01 Prot=01 MxPSd #Cfgs=3D 1 I: If#=3D 0 Alt=3D 0 #EPs=3D 3 Cls=E0(unk. ) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=3D(none) I: If#=3D 1 Alt=3D 0 #EPs=3D 2 Cls=E0(unk. ) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=3D(none) I: If#=3D 1 Alt=3D 1 #EPs=3D 2 Cls=E0(unk. ) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=3D(none) I: If#=3D 1 Alt=3D 2 #EPs=3D 2 Cls=E0(unk. ) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=3D(none) I: If#=3D 1 Alt=3D 3 #EPs=3D 2 Cls=E0(unk. ) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=3D(none) I: If#=3D 1 Alt=3D 4 #EPs=3D 2 Cls=E0(unk. ) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=3D(none) I: If#=3D 1 Alt=3D 5 #EPs=3D 2 Cls=E0(unk. ) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=3D(none) * an "lsmod" gives the following: Module Size Used by Tainted: P nvidia 1541536 18 ip6_tables 13464 0 (unused) ip_conntrack 21728 0 (unused) rfcomm 34944 0 (unused) bnep 11000 0 (unused) l2cap 19244 1 dummy 1212 0 (unused) ipt_REJECT 2968 2 (autoclean) iptable_filter 1740 1 (autoclean) ip_tables 12824 2 [ipt_REJECT iptable_filter] hci_usb 7644 0 (unused) bluez 36516 0 [rfcomm bnep l2cap hci_usb] * So yay, the USB subsystem has identified the device... * I have also installed bluez-utils, bluez-libs, and bluez-bluefw. * However, at this point when I say "hcitool scan" or "hciconfig hci0 up", I get the following: "Device is not available.: Success" ** Could you either point me in the direction of a step that I have missed or a step I am leaving out perhaps?? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. We are testing the feasibility of a new ad-hoc network security paradigm, and we wish to do it with real bluetooth devices to generate an accurate simulation. We undoubtedly cannot access the protocol stack on a Windows machine...big surprise... Thank you so much! -Kieran S.
