You should be able to do it like this. Find out your host's Bluetooth Device Address via the command "hciconfig hci0". Then go into the directory "/var/lib/bluetooth/<host-address>. In there (create if necessary) is the file "pincodes". This file contains one device per record. Each record has two fields separated by space. The first field is the device's Bluetooth Device Address and the second field is its PIN. So: cat /var/lib/bluetooth/01:23:45:67:89:AB/pincodes 12:34:56:78:9A:BC 1234 For brltty, specify the device as "bluetooth:<device-address>", e.g.: -d bluetooth:12:34:56:78:9A:BC -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God.
