IVT Bluetooth Dongle half-working

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

 



Afternoon all,

I'm trying to connect my mobile phone (Sony Ericsson k700i) with my IVT ISSC Bluetooth Dongle. It works great in Windowz with BlueSolliel, but Linux has a couple of problems.

The dongle is recognised as ISSCBTA in Hardware Browser, the Bluetooth services start up okay, Bluez seems okay.

lsusb gives me this:
[root@Bens ~]# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 1131:1001 Integrated System Solution Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

hciconfig -a gives me this:
[root@Bens ~]# hciconfig -a
hci0:   Type: USB
       BD Address: 00:11:67:23:A6:AA ACL MTU: 678:8 SCO MTU: 48:10

       Packet type: DM1 DM3 DM5 DH1 DH3 DH5 HV1 HV2 HV3
       Link policy: RSWITCH HOLD SNIFF PARK
       Link mode: SLAVE ACCEPT

HCI Ver: 1.2 (0x2) HCI Rev: 0x1fe LMP Ver: 1.2 (0x2) LMP Subver: 0x1fe
       Manufacturer: Integrated System Solution Corp. (57)

so the dongle end of things is all working.

However, when I come to scan for anything, nothing is found:
[root@Bens ~]# hcitool scan
Scanning ...
[root@Bens ~]#

After a bit of Google-ing, I found a doc which said to l2ping it to make sure everything has worked but:
[root@Bens ~]# l2ping 00:11:67:23:A6:AA
Can't connect: No route to host

I think this bit might be of some use.


Any ideas as to how this should go forward, please?

As a side point, will I be able to use the HIDs just by connecting and runnig it on the phone or will I need another application for Linux? [poke ;-)]

Many thanks for anything as I've spent days trying!
Ben :-)
