Surfacing "Pairing not supported" device response?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hey,

I got a report some time ago about a Kawai music keyboard's Bluetooth
MIDI interface not being usable from GNOME's Bluetooth settings:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-bluetooth/-/issues/154

The code in the Bluetooth settings always tries to pair devices, unless
it's blocklisted in our database.

Ideally, we wouldn't need to have those devices in a database because
the device would answer that it doesn't support pairing (as in the
"pairing failed" line here:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/-/project/1617/uploads/83953481a1008b8cdbe894849ee5b3a7/gnome-bluetooth.png
)

and then we could retry setting up the device without pairing it.

But the device response doesn't seem to bubble up to user-space.

Any advices on reporting this error message all the way up to user-
space for bluez, and then gnome-bluetooth, to use?

This is the tracking bug in the meanwhile:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-bluetooth/-/issues/158

Cheers
