Hi Eric,
>CONFIG_BLUEZ >CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIEMU >CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUART >CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUSB >CONFIG_BLUEZ_L2CAP > >Would the people responsible for these symbols please write Configure.help entries and send them to me? Yep, those are mine. They belong to Linux Bluetooth subsystem.
btw Linux is the first OS that has official Bluetooth support.
Here we go:
CONFIG_BLUEZ Bluetooth is low-cost, low-power, short-range wireless technology. It was designed as a replacement for cables and other short-range technologies like IrDA. Bluetooth operates in personal area range that typically extends up to 10 meters. More information about Bluetooth can be found at http://www.bluetooth.com
Linux Bluetooth subsystem consist of several layers: HCI Core (device and connection manager, scheduler) HCI Device drivers (interface to the hardware) L2CAP Module (L2CAP protocol)
Say Y here to enable Linux Bluetooth support and to build HCI Core layer.
To use Linux Bluetooth subsystem, you will need several user-space utilities like hciconfig and hcid. These utilities and updates to Bluetooth kernel modules are provided in the BlueZ package. For more information, see http://bluez.sf.net.
If you want to compile HCI Core as module (hci.o) say M here.
Not unsure ? say N.
CONFIG_BLUEZ_L2CAP L2CAP (Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol) provides connection oriented and connection-less data transport. L2CAP support is required for most Bluetooth applications.
Say Y here to compile L2CAP support into the kernel or say M to compile it as module (l2cap.o).
Not unsure ? say M.
CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUART Bluetooth HCI UART driver. This driver is required if you want to use Bluetooth devices with serial port interface.
Say Y here to compile support for Bluetooth UART devices into the kernel or say M to compile it as module (hci_uart.o).
Not unsure ? say M.
CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUSB Bluetooth HCI USB driver. This driver is required if you want to use Bluetooth devices with USB interface.
Say Y here to compile support for Bluetooth USB devices into the kernel or say M to compile it as module (hci_usb.o).
Not unsure ? say M.
CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIEMU Bluetooth Virtual HCI device driver. This driver is required if you want to use HCI Emulation software.
Say Y here to compile support for Virtual HCI devices into the kernel or say M to compile it as module (hci_usb.o).
Not unsure ? say M.
Thanks Max
