Re: Missing HCI events



Markus,

sorry for the delay.

I've finally found time to sit down and port the kde-bluetooth framework
for FreeBSD. While there are a lot of similarities between the FreeBSD
stack and bluez, I can't find equivalents to some HCI events.

great! thanks for doing the work!

It has been for too long on my TODO list :)

In the meanwhile I have most of libkbluetooth compiling and noticed, that a libhci would be very helpful and could ease future user space developments/porting dramatically (I bet the GNOME guys will come up with a bluetooth framework sooner or later as well). How about incorporating such a lib in the basesystem along with libsdp and libbluetooth (similar to lib_hci of bluez)?

funny you should mention that. someone actually asked me about this a while ago and even promised to start the work.

there was a short thread in freebsd-bluetooth

http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-bluetooth/2005-September/000410.html

and i also have few email addressed directly to me. you might want to contact this person and ask about the progress.

thanks,
max
