Evening all, I've plugged in a new USB Bluetooth adapter, following the instructions in the wiki: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Bluetooth . The idea is to connect to my Android phone, but I'm only getting part way.
After installing bluez and broadcom-bt-firmware, then booting with the new kernel, Bluetooth discovery and pairing work fine, but KDE Connect on each device can't see the other: they both report "No Devices". That nice Mr Google doesn't help, nor do the fine manuals and KDE web pages. Has anyone succeeded with this? $ hciconfig -a hci0: Type: Primary Bus: USB BD Address: 5C:F3:70:9C:BB:9F ACL MTU: 1021:8 SCO MTU: 64:1 UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN INQUIRY RX bytes:5628 acl:45 sco:0 events:557 errors:0 TX bytes:41821 acl:47 sco:0 commands:487 errors:0 Features: 0xbf 0xfe 0xcf 0xfe 0xdb 0xff 0x7b 0x87 Packet type: DM1 DM3 DM5 DH1 DH3 DH5 HV1 HV2 HV3 Link policy: RSWITCH SNIFF Link mode: SLAVE ACCEPT Name: 'BlueZ 5.55' Class: 0x1c0104 Service Classes: Rendering, Capturing, Object Transfer Device Class: Computer, Desktop workstation HCI Version: 4.1 (0x7) Revision: 0x16e4 LMP Version: 4.1 (0x7) Subversion: 0x220e Manufacturer: Broadcom Corporation (15) -- Regards, Peter.
