I go to the official bluetooth web site and their documentation either
tells me why I ought to be making bluetooth devices or talks about
radio spectrum and communications layers.
Where is the web page that explains to a human what the gibberish
in the hcid.conf man page actually means?
All I'm trying to do is arrange for my bluetooth keyboard (which definitely
works with manual poking and prodding) to work automatically once
my fedora 8 system has booted. Seems like it ought to be a simple task :-).
I have given up on BT for the moment. Under Windows there's a utility
which shows the mouse, the keyboard, the printer, and all the nearby
cell phones. Under Linux there's an icon which you can click (using a
PS2 mouse) which does nada. And after downloading all the bluez stuff
without reading the documentation (there is none on using the software,
as you note), no amount of clicking, typing, or swearing made anything
happen.
