I checked on this FC6 and it has at System->preferances->More preferances a tag says Bluetooth but it is nothing but a panel asking what it should do if it hears a transmitter. Nothing poped up when I turned on my thing so I think it's not working.Timothy Murphy wrote:Konstantin Svist wrote:I'm still using FC6, haven't had much chance to try F7. Got a question for those who have [tried] it: how is the built-in bluetooth support? With FC5 and FC6 I had to install some packages just to start using bluetooth, and never actually got bluetooth headsets working. In contrast, windows xp allows me to use the bluetooth headphones withpretty much zero configuration (past the initial driver/software install).Has anything improved in F7?Surely you have to "install some packages" to get most things working. I think "yum install bluez*" will give you everything you want.But what about headset support? I couldn't get it to work at all, last time I tried. Does it work as soon as you install the right packages, now? Or do you still need to compile/configure a lot of stuff?Karl
That's sort of what I mean - it's pretty hard to get it all working together :(
I'm sure the driver supports it - there are some tutorials out there that supposedly help you get the headset running under Ubuntu...
