Eric, Was your RELENG_5 upgraded from 5.[012]-RELEASE? If so, try to fix the module loading problem by following directions described in src/UPDATING: 20040806: Module loading has been fixed. Some older installations will drop proper module_path initialization and modules will fail to load properly. If you have a line in /boot/loader.rc that says: "initialize drop", do (i386 only): cp /usr/src/sys/boot/i386/loader/loader.rc /boot/loader.rc chown root:wheel /boot/loader.rc chmod 444 /boot/loader.rc On Sun, 22 Aug 2004, Maksim Yevmenkin wrote: > Eric, > > > Just curious if anyone has been messing with bluetooth on a RELENG_5. > > not that i know of :) > > > I'm not sure when it broke, since this is my first time messing with > > bluetooth stuff. > > Following the handbook, I try to load the ng_ubt driver, and I get the > > super-informative; > > > > # kldload ng_ubt > > kldload: can't load ng_ubt: No such file or directory > > > > # ls -al /boot/kernel/ng_ubt.ko > > -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 45306 Aug 20 09:38 /boot/kernel/ng_ubt.ko > > weird. > > - are you sure your kernel is in sync with your modules? > > - what is your module_path is? > > - what happens when you do kldload /boot/kernel/ng_ubt.ko? > > i'm building RELENG_5 now to check this. > > > (On a side note, I'm trying to get my new Sony Ericsson T637 phone > > connected via bluetooth to my FreeBSD laptop for surfing and such.
