Hi Ketil,

Quoted 6 lines

I am running a Debian 3.1 system with bluez-utils 2.15-1.1 and kernel 2.4.27-2-686. I have a billionton bluetooth USB adapter (Vendor=0a5c ProdID=200a Rev= 0.01), and it seems to work fine.
However, when I run hidd, I get the following error message:

Quoted 7 lines

Can't open HIDP control socket: No such file or directory
I straced hidd, and it seems to be caused by this operation:
socket(PF_BLUETOOTH, SOCK_RAW, 6) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong, or how I can fix this?

load the hidp kernel module if it is available. Otherwise switch to a recent 2.6 kernel.

Regards

Marcel

Hello,

I am running a Debian 3.1 system with bluez-utils 2.15-1.1 and kernel 2.4.27-2-686. I have a billionton bluetooth USB adapter (Vendor=0a5c ProdID=200a Rev= 0.01), and it seems to work fine.

However, when I run hidd, I get the following error message:

Can't open HIDP control socket: No such file or directory

I straced hidd, and it seems to be caused by this operation:

socket(PF_BLUETOOTH, SOCK_RAW, 6) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong, or how I can fix this?
