I put both devices in /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf, is there something else I have to do to set them up? The guides on the web were pretty vague. Sorry if I'm asking newbie questions here. If there's a particular guide I should look at, I'd appreciate an "RTFM" with a link :) > > Cheers > > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
