I am running bluez under Fedora-6 (I have installed all bluez* packages) and want to link to my phone (a Sony-Ericsson T630) using gnokii. Unfortunately, I seem to be unable to set a bluetooth pin on my computer. When I try to connect (with "gnokii --identify") the phone asks for the pin, but whatever I enter on the phone I am told there is a Passkey mismatch. I notice that /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf came without any pin_helper entry. I tried the following three: # PIN helper # pin_helper dbus_pin_helper; # pin_helper /usr/bin/bluez-pin; pin_helper /etc/bluetooth/feed-pin.sh In the last case feed-pin.sh reads #!/bin/sh echo "PIN:0000" and has mode 755. I ran "sudo service bluetooth restart" after each change. I also ran "sudo bluez-pin --dbus &". As far as I can see a window should came up on my laptop asking me to enter a pin, but nothing came up. More recently, I downloaded and installed kdebluetooth and kdebluetooth-devel from the redhat-kde site. Unfortunately I could not find any documentation for this, and no commands I gave seemed to have any useful effect. Incidentally, when I ran "rpm -ql kdebluetooth" I notices a large number of *.desktop files. Am I right in thinking that these are potentially at least entries in the Fedora menu? If so, how does one add them to the menu? Any advice or suggestions gratefully received.
before following this, please take note that I'm on rawhide .. some stuff might be different try using security user; dbus_pin_helper; I had this problem 2 days ago with my new SonyEricsson k320i ... and I couldnt find any bluez-pin etc on rawhide ... with that settings, the bluetooth-applet will ask the pin .. if you want to put the pin directly into the config .. try using this in /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf security auto; passkey "0000"; -- ----------------------------------------------- regards Hikaru ----------------------------------------------- Mohd Izhar Firdaus Bin Ismail Amano Hikaru 天野晃 「あまの ひかる」 Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS ICT 2nd Year 1st Semester mohd.izhar.firdaus@xxxxxxxxx ----------------------------------------------- kagesenshi.87@xxxxxxxxx Blog: http://kagesenshi.blogspot.com -----------------------------------------------
