Dear Linux folks,
For the first time, I wanted to transfer a 2 MB PDF file from a Dell
Latitude E7250 with Debian sid/unstable with Linux 5.16-rc1 to a Nokia
N9 (MeeGo/Harmattan). Using the package *bluez-obexd* 5.61-1 and GNOME
41, the device was found, and paired fine. Then I selected to transfer
the 2 MB file, and after starting for a second, it timed out after the
progress bar moves forward ones and failed.
The systemd journal contains:
obexd[21139]: Transfer(0x56243fe4f790) Error: Timed out waiting for
response
Testing with a a 5 byte test text file, worked fine. Also testing with a
Galaly M32, both files were transferred without problems (though slowly
with 32 KB/s.)
Trying to connect to the device with bluetoothctl failed for me, and the
journal contained, it failed.
$ bluetoothctl
Agent registered
[bluetooth]# connect 40:98:4E:5B:CE:XX
Attempting to connect to 40:98:4E:5B:CE:XX
Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.Failed
bluetoothd[21104]: src/service.c:btd_service_connect() a2dp-source
profile connect failed for 40:98:4E:5B:CE:B3: Protocol not available
As the Nokia N9 was once pretty popular in the Linux community, I am
pretty sure, it used to work fine in the past, and there is some
regression. It’d be great, if you could give me some hints how to
further debug the issue.
Kind regards,
Paul
