Resign yourself to having to buy more than one BT adapter before you
find one that will work on your system and willpair with your device.
lsusb will show which chipset - here is the output for my 4 BT adaptors
on a x86 Ubuntu.
Code:
--------------------
Bus 003 Device 026: ID 0a5c:200a Broadcom Corp. BCM2035 Bluetooth dongle
Bus 003 Device 025: ID 0a5c:2121 Broadcom Corp. BCM2210 Bluetooth
Bus 003 Device 027: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth
Dongle (HCI mode)
Bus 003 Device 029: ID 0cf3:3005 Atheros Communications, Inc. AR3011 Bluetooth
--------------------
The Cambridge silicon is a clone of a real CSR chipset which doesn't
work on Linux but works on Windows !
Only real problem was with CSR adaptor. IIRC Atrheros needed a bit of
help in loading its firmware from correct Linux directory.
The BT revisision are 1.6, 2.0 2.1 and 3.0. I'd stick to 2.1 and 3.0 as
they can use newer pairing mechanisms/
