Hello all, I'm having some difficulty in scanning and connecting to a device using bluetoothctl. The device in question is a Motion 2in1 Wiimote. Its basically a cheap chinese wiimote clone. When I try to scan using bluetoothctl the device never shows up. When I try to scan using "hcitool scan --iac=liac", the device shows up as: 2A:04:84:80:13:41 Nintendo RVL-CNT-01 The device cannot be connected to in bluetoothctl but I can connect using "hcitool cc 2A:04:84:80:13:41". If I connect using hctitool and then immediately use "pair 2A:04:84:80:13:41" in bluetoothctl. It looks like the device pairs but the wiimote disconnects before finishing the process. If I then run "trust 2A:04:84:80:13:41", bluetoothctl will show that the device connects anytime I press any button, and then shortly disconnects. hcidump reveals that the something is wating for additional data but it is not receiving what it expects. Because this data was never received the pairing process is left incomplete. However I can reconnect by pressing any button on the remote. Whenever I do, it will automatically disconnect after several seconds. Scouring the code, I've come to realize that this remote is not responding to sdp queries and therefore bluez does not know what services it supports. My logs show this error: 2A:04:84:80:13:41: error updating services: Input/output error (5) Without knowing the services (ie, HID) it fails in connect_event_cb with the following error: Refusing input device connect: No such file or directory (2) I've very new to bluetooth and bluez. Does anyone know if there are other methods of scanning for a device's services? I'm able to modify the code and try patches. -Kameron -- 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
