Niki, > i'm trying to setup a bluetooth gprs connection. > the problem is that the connection works > only if i start rfcomm_sppd on a TTY, > and then start manually ppp with "set device" the > same TTY. have you tried to specify set device "!/usr/bin/rfcomm_sppd -a gsm -c 1" inside your /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file? this way ppp(8) will start rfcomm_sppd(1) automatically and will use its stdin/stdout. > rfcomm_pppd and rcomm_sppd with stdin/stdout > does not work properly as the bluetooth modem > echoes everyting back. > I get the same results with the bluetooth modems > on a Nokia 6230 phone and Motorola RazrV3. do not panic :) i do not think it ever worked the way you are trying to, i.e. running rfcomm_sppd(1) from the terminal. the stdin/stdout mode was added specifically for the folks who wanted to use rfcomm_sppd(1) in ppp(8), i.e. 'set device' just like above. i should probably fix it just to avoid confusion. > When i start rfcomm_pppd the ppp daemon begins to write in the log > that he is talking to himself (several "magic is same" errors, and disconnect) hmmm... thats strange... rfcomm_pppd(8) should not have this problem. > But when i start rfcomm_sppd in the background on a tty > it is working properly: > ------------------ > root@phobos# rfcomm_sppd -a gsm -c 1 -b -t /dev/ttyp0 > root@phobos# cu -l /dev/ttyp0 > Connected > atz > OK > ~ > [EOT] > ------------------ > > I'm running about one week old 7.0-CURRENT but > have experienced this for quite some time. > Also, i'm using a usb bluetooth dongle, > and the /etc/rc.bluetooth init script. > > does anyone have idea what can be causing this? i will look into this and fix it thanks, max
