I have fedora 9 x86_64 install with all updates up-to-date.

I have Belkin USB dongle that works with my Motorola Phone (I can browse my phone over bluetooth)

I bought a Jabra 125 bluetooth headset that workswith my Motorola Phone.


I want to use this headset with fedora for making calls via ekiga.

I have no clue how to get this going. I found a sad link here, http://fedorasolved.org/post-install-solutions/bluetooth-headset-config


Here is more details,

$ rpm -qa | grep bluezbluez-libs-3.32-1.fc9.x86_64
bluez-gnome-0.26-1.fc9.x86_64
bluez-utils-3.32-1.fc9.x86_64
bluez-utils-cups-3.32-1.fc9.x86_64
bluez-utils-alsa-3.32-1.fc9.x86_64


$ rpm -qa | grep alsa
alsa-tools-1.0.16-4.fc9.x86_64
alsa-lib-1.0.16-3.fc9.x86_64
alsa-lib-devel-1.0.16-3.fc9.x86_64
alsa-utils-1.0.16-3.fc9.x86_64
bluez-utils-alsa-3.32-1.fc9.x86_64

$ hcitool scan

$ hcitool inq

Then tried to follow the instructions,

$ ./configure

What am I doing wrong? (Is there an easier to way to do this?)

That link is out of date/no longer the way to do things.

Instead take a look at:

http://wiki.bluez.org/wiki/HOWTO/AudioDevices

Basically you should just need to populate your ~/.asoundrc with your
headsets bluetooth address and it should work.

Sadly, here I get the "sco packet for unknown connection" error, which
is apparently a kernel issue with encrypted/non encrypted
connections. ;(

Hope that helps, and please let us know how it goes.

I created a .asoundrc file and was successful in pairing my headset,** However nothing else is working.
This is on mplayer
<snip>
[AO_ALSA] alsa-lib: pcm_bluetooth.c:1505audioservice_recv) Error receiving data from audio service: Success(0)

[AO_ALSA] Unable to set hw-parameters: Invalid argument
Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.

Audio: no sound
</snip>

I found another post on getting the headset to work. It might help you.
http://fedoraforum.org/forum/printthread.php?t=190468


I get even though pulseaudio service is running,
Connection failure: Connection refused
Connection failure: Connection refused

when running,
pactl load-module module-alsa-sink device=bluetooth
pactl load-module module-alsa-source device=bluetooth



This whole fedora implemetation seem to be a big mess of infinite dependencies and broken things. Who whould no pulseaudio volume control is not part of pulse audio and not installed by default? Google is your friend for everything.


Anyway, I'm out. I'll try this only if there is something promising or a fedora developer who knows this stuff is willing to help to get this going.

On the two systems I've installed Fedora 9 onto, they had it installed
by default.

By the way, try and turn off the HTML posting to the mailing list.

It wasn't on mine and it says so here, http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureVolumeControl

I'm using gmail and I don't see a setting here for text only however my encoding is set to use "text only".

I hit reply and ensured it was sent to fedora-list@.* Not sure what happened here but I'll keep that in mind.

Thanks!

It's still sending as HTML plus plain text (as before). I don't use
Gmail, so I can't offer specific instructions about how to configure it,
but some mail clients call such mail "rich text," and a quick look at
the Gmail help seems to use the same term, suggesting that you might
need to look for an option like that. If you can't find the option in
your Gmail settings, or their help guides, I'm sure someone else using
it on here can tell you exactly where the option is hidden.

Nah, you're fine. That's in my signature to all mail on this list, to
let people know not to try privately e-mailing me, it won't work. They
can post, but I'll never see it.

In the "Compose Mail" screen there is a "Rich formatting >>" button
just below "Subject:" text entry box and "attach a file" link.
Hitting it produces a message with both HTML and text mime sections.
I think it interacts with the default settings when I first set up the
account and toggles between text-only and Rich-Formatting. Strangely
I can't find the setting for selecting that any more. I think it may
have gone away. Strange.

Sadly Gmail makes it way too easy to accidentally send HTML crap. As
an anti-HTML mail zealot, I've had to slink down in my chair a few
times after I noticed that %$#@-ing gmail once again sent HTML on my
behalf simply because someone sent me some.
