Tested with a Sony Ericsson T68, and in theory it works with Nokia telephones too. It should work with ALL cellphones that have event reporting and bluetooth. You start it with "freevo bluetooth". It's placed somewhere under helpers, I think it is in src/helper/bluetooth. If you got a Ericsson T68 you should be happy with the current settings. (It's a bit akward but it works, the phone it was tested with had some semi-operational buttons; they only worked from time to time.) It's fairly easy to change the button bindings, but beware that some buttons DO NOT WORK, i.e joystick up on the SE T68. -Just use a texteditor to edit bluetooth.py. If you got another phone, a Nokia or something else, you might want to check out what the buttons are called. Get a program called minicom and start it with "minicom -s", enter "Serial port setup" and set it to your bluetooth device. (/dev/rfcomm1, /dev/bluetooth/rfcomm1, /dev/bluetooth/rfcomm/1) As you already guessed it changes from sy stem to system and the ending number, 1, is set by rfcomm. More about this later. +Just use a texteditor to edit bluetooth.py. If you got another phone, a Nokia or something else, you might want to check out what the buttons are called.

Example: kp2direction = {"u":"VOL+", "d":"VOL-"} If you press the button called "u" (UP, the volume slider on the side of a T68) the remote will send "VOL+" to the network remote. This isn't a thing you might want to change, but I hope you understand how it works. @@ -353,7 +353,7 @@ * Bluez-utils (and it's deps, http://bluez.sf.net) -The bluetooth subsystem was tricky with a patched kernel so I recommend the 2.4.21 kernel, which has the bluetooth subsytem by default.

When you are sure you got that working (test by running "dmesg | less" and look for bluetooth driver messages) you may want to create a bluetooth device in /dev/ if bluetooth doesn't make one for you. Google for it, I don't know how you do that (makedev 43 115 or similiar, but that aren't the right numbers though). When you got your device set up you run some bluez command to look for your phone. "hciconfig hci0 up" Set your bluetooth interface. "hcitool scan" Look for your bluetooth phone. On my T68 you must set the phone to "Searchable", item number one in the bluetooth menu.
