Yep, currently Linux 4.1 is required, you can actually check if your kernel support with the tools/mgmt-tester: sudo ./tools/mgmt-tester -p "Read Advertising" sudo ./tools/mgmt-tester -p "Add Advertising" The tests should all pass otherwise bluetoothd wont be able to work since it depends on these commands to manage the advertising data. -- Luiz Augusto von Dentz -- 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
