I've done quite a bit of research on this but I just can't seem to get
Bluetooth to work. I read some posts that say you have to compile
bluetooth kernel support and others that say it just works out of the box.
I have looked at all the output from dmesg, lsmod, and syslog regarding
Bluetooth and I don't see any indication
of any problems. I have the Bluez stack installed as well as other
Bluetooth pkgs/libraries.
I've gathered all the info I could think of regarding Bluetooth. Any
advice on what to try next is greatly appreciated!
