Centos continues to fall behind in with the state of bluetooth
development.
Nothing new from 5.1 to 5.2.
Has anyone got a more recent version working and have compile and rpm
build instructions?
Here are the rpms that I have:
bluez-gnome-0.5-5.fc6.i386.rpm
bluez-hcidump-1.32-1.i386.rpm
bluez-libs-3.7-1.i386.rpm
bluez-utils-3.7-2.el5.centos.i386.rpm
bluez-utils-cups-3.7-2.el5.centos.i386.rpm
gnome-bluetooth-0.7.0-10.2.el5.i386.rpm
gnome-bluetooth-libs-0.7.0-10.2.el5.i386.rpm
If you want latest and greatest, an enterprise linux probably will not
suit you. It would be like buying a Volvo because they are reliable,
then constantly adding aftermarket parts to the engine.
There is probably a stable version from a year ago or so that would
provide a lot more functionality. The bluez-user list was discussing
3.14 last year.
Of course to make this even more fun, if you do a man pand, there is
text covering a /etc/bluetooth/pan/dev-up script. No /etc/bluetooth/pan
directory on any of my Centos builds.
So I have pand running, but then how do I bring the interface up? Well
I hope to do some things with pand tonight after the 802 sessions for
the day.
Oh, and as far as stable and backleveled.... I work on IEEE 802
standards. It takes us YEARS these days to get a standard out. And
all we do is 'put ink on paper'. Well time to focus in on the week's
announcements. Oh, such fun!
