Tobias, >>yes it is a CSR chip based device. can you tell if its a USB device? > > yes, it is usb. windows clearly states it as usb. good. then you will most likely get it to work. if you get it to attach (see below). >>1) at loader prompt type (without quotes) "boot -v" >>2) do not press the Bluetooth button just yet >>3) wait until system is fully loaded >>4) kldload ugen (this is only required if you do not have >> "device ugen" the in the kernel config file) >>5) press the Bluetooth button > > did 1), then 5) > > ugen did not attach, instead I got an error. see the attached > files, the error is at the bottom of dmesg. Mar 25 21:59:36 angel5 kernel: uhub2: device problem, disabling port 1 well, this is a USB problem and has nothing to do with Bluetooth. you have a USB hub inside your laptop. for whatever reason USB stack does not like Bluetooth(?) USB devices when they plugged into hub. i have exactly the same problem with my laptop (Toshiba Tecra 8100). when i put it into the docking station (docking station has USB hub inside) my Bluetooth USB dongle stops working :( when i plug device directly into the laptop (without hub) evrything is working fine. i found out that if i unplug and re-plug the dongle quickly several times i can get it to attach. i guess you could try to press the Bluetooth button quickly few times :) i asked several times about this problem, but nobody answered :( you could try to do the same. i guess FreeBSD does not have USB guru anymore :( bottom line: ugen(4) must attach to the device, *if* USB stack attach the device. if you get the device to attach then you most likely will have working Bluetooth. thanks, max To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
