Hello Folks
I've just installed f12 (from centos5.5) and I'm puzzled at where global bt config is now?
There was once /etc/sysconfig/bluetooth (still referenced in init script) where: HIDD_ENABLED=1 HIDD_OPTIONS="--master --server" HIDD_OPTIONS="--connect aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff --server"
Could be entered to enable a device at start up.
Also, /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf used to contain devices, but now this is gone and replaced with /etc/bluetooth/main.conf (iirc) which doesn't seem similar.
Does anyone know where to enter a device to connect at start up now? The gnome bt panel applet seems to work fine on a per login basis, but I need the keyboard from start up.
Many thanks, M.

Hi, I have googled for long time and it looks like there was a major rewrite of how bluetooth devices are handled during 2009. When searching it feels as if you hit a vaccume.
From what I understand, with the exception of /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm, all must
be handled thru BIOS (if the machine is capable you can have the keyboard etc at GRUB time) or thru udev rules (custom-written, pcmcia, USB, etc). JB

Cripes! Have you any pointers to that info? As you said, there seems to be a vacuum... I've done udev rules in the past for other stuff - but, grub... Many thanks, M.
