Nice, I'll contact him about his progress. In the meanwhile I have made goo= d=20 progress on libhci. I have some questions, though: 1. Is there a way to retrieve all hci node names? I know the way that ngctl= (8)=20 uses, but that way requires root access. Is there another way to retrieve a= ll=20 nodes with type "hci" which works with user level privileges? 2. I have some Belkin BT dongles and they return the same devices on inquir= y=20 multiple times. While this is allowed by the spec (Vol 2, Chapter 7.1.1 of= =20 the BT 1.2 spec) the spec states the following: "It is recommended that the= =20 Controller tries to report a particular device only once during an inquiry = or=20 inquiry period.". Should the removal of duplicates happen in libhci, later = on=20 by the user or on a lower level?
