(please correct me if I am wrong) The rfcomm app speaks directly to the kernel bluetooth interface. It works fine. The sample test-serial program works through the dbus interface to the bluetooth daemon and has exactly the same problem as my test program - namely the serial link is dropped as soon as I attempt to write data to it. The problem I have is the large overhead to understanding the source tree, with the wiki being pretty out of date. I'm keen to sort this problem.
