Hi.
This patch adds on demand functionality for bluetooth service based on udev events.
It's adapted from Fedora [1].
JFTR: I'd appreciate if this (or something similar) was added. I have a similar hack in
the openSUSE package (though not as elaborate as this one), and for consistency across
distributions, having a solution upstream is preferred.
Idea is that bluetoothd doesn't need to be running unless the user actually has a bluetooth device.
Just out of interest: how did you solve the "udev event for bluetooth adapter
fires before dbus is started" probem?
"udev event for bluetooth adapter fires before dbus is started" can happend in these cases:
boot process or changing runlevel:
udev is started, dbus is not started yet and somebody inserts bluetooth device ->
udev calls "/etc/init.d/bluetooth start" which fails
but there is running boot (changing runlevel) process, so sometime after starting dbus is started
bluetooth again, this time successfully
running system without dbus:
bluetoothd will not run even without this feature

Petr
