Cheers
but when i run bluetooth-wizard nothing is shown
In great excitement I rushed out and bought one of these :) A
Bluetooth remote - brilliant! I might even think about buying a
Playstation 3 to go with it :) Infrared is for suckers...
In order to get it into pairing mode (and thus be able to see it from
bluetooth-wizard) it looks like you need to press *AND HOLD* the
"Enter" and "Start" buttons at the same time (for something like one
second). The Fedora Wiki page is lamely unclear about that.
Sadly I can't pair with it yet, pairing fails - for reasons I'll try
and figure out later...
i did know that thanks
why is this so difficult?
i suspect all these suboptimal solutions like bdremoted are around
because people having been banging there head against a brick wall have
mostly given up on doing things the "correct" way and resort to
"anything that will work"
i really didn't want to do this as my focus was on mythtv, but i will
have to start hacking the bluetooth system (just like i had to do with
lirc before)
seems kind of crazy that all the snippets of bluetooth documentation is
spread all over the place and not on the bluez.org site. oh well.
