I am not looking for someone or something to blame and I appreciate and support all the great work that everyone does. Although I am a developer and know enough linux to be dangerous, I am pretty much an end user of the Freerunner at this point. I have had it almost a year to the day and none of the distros I have tried worked with my bluetooth headset (Aliph Jawbone) for making or receiving calls. I have kept a cursory eye on the ML since for this issue and I admit I have seen the odd reference to some CLI commands to try and connect during a call but have been waiting and hoping that it would be supported automatically via some alsa state file or some such because I can hardly expect my partner to open a terminal window and issue some bluetooth connect command while she is driving so that she can use the phone hands-free ;-) If what you are suggesting is that it is now expected to work at the FSO dbus level albeit needing some initial pairing to be setup without a gui (which is fine if it is a one time exercise), then I am more then willing to test with my BT headset as soon as my FR returns from buzzfix in the US. I will report my findings here when I do. Whomever is responsible for adding this support to fso, thank you for your efforts and sorry if you feel your efforts have been a waste. cheers Denis _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
