I have a bluetooth adapter that works fine on openSUSE 11.0 but in openSUSE 11 RC1 doesn't work. When I run kbluemon I get the following error: No bluetooth adapter found! Unable to start kbluemon. Check your bluetooth adapter or restart the bluetooth service.

The bluetooth service is running and openSUSE detects the bluetooth adapter. This is what I get when I run lsusb:

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)

What could be wrong?

The bluetooth libraries changed and KDE4 is only half and KDE3 not ported at all.

I wonder what else changed and is only half done? That's really not a good way to make an impression.

Hi Mike,

It's all opensource software. I suggest you open an editor today!

Believe me, if I was a programmer, I would. I'm not. Never have been. I do test, and report when I find problems. It was the manner that you answered with that showed indifference. Something that used to work, and now you say it's only half done, or not at all. Your attitude basically came across to me as, so what? it's not done with no inference that it might get fixed, or what the solution to the OP's original problem might be.

Well, it's the nature of open source. Thing A improves, but leaves thing B regressing - then thing B is fixed again and improves. Over time A+B get better and better, but as openSUSE releases at a given time we might caught a broken A+B. And don't tell me, we should delay the release - because in january A and B will have different values.

Oh, heck no.. Don't delay the release! At the rate that the changes come in, we'd have to call it 11.1.1.1.a2 or something silly like that if it was delayed. It just sounded as if that was where it was going to die. I tend to be a bit too literal at times. Sorry..

What should a user as me do in order to get working a bluetooth adapter using KDE 4.1.3 in openSUSE 11.1? Same people are going to have the same problem. I can't send files to my mobile device and I'm unable to use my bluetooth mouse.

Cheers,

Hi, I used bluez-gnome package to get my keyboard and mouse working. Per -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Ok Per, I'll try it but if bluetooth support is incomplete in KDE 4 openSUSE 11.1 and the KDE3 application doesn't work with KDE4 the default installation should provide an alternative and install it.

The KDE3 application will most likely never work - as it's unmaintained. We better drop it completely. KDE4 support is only half done and the remaining pieces are currently worked on in the KDE community. bluez-gnome is an alternative, but taking the bugs I get about mix of desktop environments I'm not sure it's a viable alternative for the default installation. My plan was to update the kde bluetooth stack once it's done - my only alternative is to drop it out of the medium completely and being unable to update it later.
