Description Christian Bartels 2003-12-22 07:06:54 UTC
it would be great if someone could integrate the alsa bluetooth headset driver from http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~jp/snd-bluez-sco/ into the alsa ebuilds.

with this driver it is possible to use one's bluetooth headset as an i/o sounddevice. in combination with for example cvoicecontrol it could be a great remote control. ;-)

thx in advanced!

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Christian Bartels 2004-03-15 06:29:08 UTC
i got this mail today from the author of the headset driver. could someone please make an ebuild for this?


------------------------
Hello,

I have updated the snd-bluez-sco driver to work with Linux 2.6.4. It's now
called snd-bt-sco. You can find more info on the following web page:

   http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~jp/snd-bt-sco/

Please note that I am unable to provide support for this software. Please
use the community resources (such as mailing lists) to get help from other
people how have had success.

Good luck!

[This message has also been bcc-ed to people who have expressed interest
in a 2.6 port]

Seeing as how I don't have the headset to test it out, I can't verify that an ebuild works.  If you were to create the ebuild and test it out, I would commit it after testing that it atleast compiles and installs "sanely".
Comment 3 Christian Bartels 2004-03-15 21:43:32 UTC
mh...ok, time to get knowledge of creating ebuilds. ;-)
i'll see, whether i have time in the next days.
Comment 4 Jeremy Huddleston (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-04-05 14:51:29 UTC
so... how's the ebuild coming? =)
Comment 5 Christian Bartels 2004-04-09 03:07:57 UTC
well, sorry, i did not had the time to make an ebuild. at the moment i am not at home...i hope i will have the time in two weeks or so.
does anyone else has time to do the ebuild?
