Hi All!
I installed a new Debian 6.0 Squeeze With KDE 4.4.5 and with it, I'm newbie and I have few problem.
I didn't find any bluetooth application ( the dongle's LED not blinking).
I got a system message from five refreshes, but where is the app, which starts the refresh?
I didn't find the package manager ( kpackage[kit] or others, and if possible, I don't like mix the Gnome and KDE apps ).

There are three possibilities. kbluetooth was first I think, then kdebluetooth replaced it. That was also abandoned, and now bluedevil is the current KDE bluetooth implementation. So you should see if bluedevil is there first. If not use kdebluetooth. If it isn't there use kbluetooth.

Hi!
Thx, but don't do nothing...

vlad@debian6kde:~$ lsusb
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)

The device LED started blinking.

After I lauched bludevil, I tried add a device :
Message : "No adapters found. Please connect one."

What version of bluedevil do you have?

I installed from here.

What is the output of "hcitool dev"? This may need to be run as root.

If no devices are listed, then you may need to install the needed kernel drivers if available.

I have multiboot system ( Debian 6.0 Squeeze KDE and the Debian 5.0.8 Lenny Gnome, and inside the Lenny the WBox with WinXP SP3 ). The bluetooth works fine, exept Squeeze.

Do you have the appropriate system-wide dbus-daemon operating, and bluez installed?

Hi!
root@debian6kde:~# dpkg -l | grep bluez
ii bluez 4.66-3 Bluetooth tools and daemons
ii libbluedevil1 1.7+dfsg-1 A Qt wrapper for bluez

root@debian6kde:~# dpkg -l | grep dbus
ii dbus 1.2.24-4 simple interprocess messaging system
ii dbus-x11 1.2.24-4 simple interprocess messaging system (X11 deps)

ii libsmokeqtdbus4-3 4:4.4.5-3 Qt DBus Smoke library
ii python-dbus 0.83.1-1 simple interprocess messaging system (Python interface)

Sorry, I can't decide, that is enough or not.

In the afternoon I tried two live CD -s, Ubuntu 8.04.3 and new Linux Mint. With 8.04.3 was OK, with Mint I saw the bluetooth icon, but when I pressed "Bluetooth on" radio button, not happened nothing.
Best regards : -=L=-

Can you please provide the output of the following command?

Code: Select all

qdbus --system --literal org.bluez / org.bluez.Manager.ListAdapters

Hi!

root@debian6kde:~# qdbus --system --literal org.bluez / org.bluez.Manager.ListAdapters
Service 'org.bluez' does not exist.

It appears that BlueZ is not operative on your system. Assuming the "bluez" package is installed, try restarting the system wide D-Bus daemon (/etc/init.d/dbus restart).

If this has no effect, please contact your distribution for further information, it appears that their packages are defective.

The bluetooth icon appeared...
When I opened the "Add Device" window, I saw this :

No bluetooth adapters has been found"

Is org.bluez present on the system D-Bus bus now that you have reinstalled bluez?

Code: Select all

qdbus --system --literal org.bluez / org.bluez.Manager.ListAdapters

Hi!

root@debian6kde:~# qdbus --system --literal org.bluez / org.bluez.Manager.ListAdapters
Service 'org.bluez' does not exist.

I tried this:
root@debian6kde:/tmp/dbus/dbus-1.4.6# ./configure
# dbus_1.4.6.orig.tar.gz
.
root@debian6kde:~# /etc/init.d/dbus restart

.
.
checking for DBUS... configure: error: D-Bus library is required
root@debian6kde:/tmp/blue/bluez-4.88#

I think, the bluez has a major problem...
