I have moved to the debian "sid" branch as it has 3.1 bluez included.

When I first apt-get'd the necessary packages everything seemed to work OK. After REBOOT I am getting the following messages about HCID:

Jul 27 03:41:37  hcid[1460]: Bluetooth HCI daemon
Jul 27 03:41:37 sdpd[1462]: Bluetooth SDP daemon
Jul 27 03:41:37 hcid[1460]: Service could not become the primary owner.
Jul 27 03:41:37 hcid[1460]: Unable to get on D-Bus
Jul 27 03:41:38 dund[1481]: Bluetooth DUN daemon version 3.1

Yes, I have dbus installed and presumably running:
% ps -ef | grep dbus
100 1412 1 0 03:41 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon
--system

Here are my installed versions:
% apt-show-versions | grep -e dbus -e bluez
libdbus-1-2/sid uptodate 0.62-4
libdbus-glib-1-2/sid uptodate 0.62-4
bluez-utils/sid uptodate 3.1-2
bluez-firmware/sid uptodate 1.0-3
dbus/sid uptodate 0.62-4
bluez-hcidump/sid uptodate 1.31-1
libbluetooth2/sid uptodate 3.1-1

On boot-up here are the reported versions:
Kernel ver. 2.4.32
BlueZ Core 2.4
HCI USB 2.7
l2cap 2.3
rfcomm 1.1

I should mention, I suppose, that I am running low on available disk space, I will work towards cleaning that up, could this be the root of this error?

Thanks,

jpf

do you have a correct installed bluez-hcid.conf for the D-Bus service?

Regards

Marcel

Jul 27 03:41:38 dund[1481]: Bluetooth DUN daemon version 3.1

try to restart dbus (/etc/init.d/dbus restart) and bluetooth (/etc/init.d/bluetooth restart).
Also could you please retry with 3.1-3 (available from tomorrow I hope).

Last remark: please use the 'reportbug' utility when reporting a bug on a debian
system: it will go through the proper channels and we can easily keep track of them.

thanks,
filippo

Thanks for your reply.

I tried as you suggested:

   # /etc/init.d/dbus restart
   Stopping system message bus: dbus.
   Starting system message bus: dbus.
   # /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart
   Restarting bluetooth: hcid sdpd.

Here is my log (/var/log/daemon.log) (nothing in /var/log/messages)

Jul 27 15:59:36  hcid[1549]: Bluetooth HCI daemon
Jul 27 15:59:36  hcid[1549]: Service could not become the primary owner.
Jul 27 15:59:36  hcid[1549]: Unable to get on D-Bus
Jul 27 15:59:36  sdpd[1551]: Bluetooth SDP daemon

I am happy to try 3.1-3, where will it be available? for "sid"? mirrors.kernel.org/debian?

I am unfamliar with "reportbug" so if you point me to the correct place, I would be happy to utilize it.

Thanks for your help,

jpf
