Bugzilla Bug 39710

I've been able to compile and use bluetooth support on my Sun Ultra 10 machine
to connect with my bluetooth Palm Pilot to perform network sharing. This means
that the following packages compile fine and seem to be stable on the sparc
platform. Please adjust the masks on each of these:

bluez-libs-2.4
bluez-utils-2.3-r2
bluez-sbpd-1.5
libopenobdex-1.0.1
gob-2.0.6
libbtctl-0.3
gnome-bluetooth-0.4.1
bluez-pan-1.1
bluez-hcidump-1.5


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Could you please provide kernel information? Bluetooth won't work properly with
certain kernels, and I'd like to straighten that out before I start keywording.
Also, have you managed to do obex file transfers?

Kernel version is 2.4.24-sparc. So far I have got network sharing over ppp to
my Palm T3 working. Will update once I've tested the file transfers.

I notice that I may not have been clear in my original report. All of the
bluez-* packages only have the x86 keyword. Those packages certainly appear to
be working correctly allowing discovery, service publishing on the sparc-linux
machine and l2pinging of bluetooth devices in range.

This level of function demonstrates that the kernel modules, userspace
libraries and low-level tools such as l2ping, hcitool sdptool and rfcomm are
working. Presumably this means that they warrant the ~sparc keyword.

libopenobdex, gob, libbtctl, and gnome-bluetooth also compile and do not
exhibit stability problems. Although it appears that gnome-bluetooth doesn't
offer much in the way of functionality right now.

I have compiled the obextool and had no problems using it to perform an obex
push to my Palm T3. The obextool is a quick and nasty command line hack which
uses openobex to perform obex pushes.

Updated in cvs. Looks like 2.4.x kernels work but 2.6.x don't (at least with my
adapter...).
