I just got a Motorola E815 from Verizon. That means, of course, that it's crippled all to hell in software. I found out how to enable DUN, and got it working in Windows, and would love to be able to do it in Linux, too. This is on my Thinkpad T42. I've never done bluetooth before, but I have the two devices bonded, I think. deepthink:/etc/ppp/peers # rcbluetooth status Checking service bluetooth : hcid (activated) running hidd (activated) running hid2hci unused sdpd (activated) running opd (activated) running rfcomm (activated) pand (activated) running dund (activated) running deepthink:/etc/bluetooth # hciconfig hci0: Type: USB BD Address: 00:20:E0:76:D7:D0 ACL MTU: 192:8 SCO MTU: 64:8 UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN RX bytes:3330 acl:74 sco:0 events:211 errors:0 TX bytes:2879 acl:74 sco:0 commands:88 errors:0 deepthink:/etc/ppp/peers # l2ping 00:14:9A:38:71:9D Ping: 00:14:9A:38:71:9D from 00:20:E0:76:D7:D0 (data size 20) ... 4 bytes from 00:14:9A:38:71:9D id 200 time 31.41ms 4 bytes from 00:14:9A:38:71:9D id 201 time 36.73ms 4 bytes from 00:14:9A:38:71:9D id 202 time 30.69ms 4 bytes from 00:14:9A:38:71:9D id 203 time 39.72ms 4 bytes from 00:14:9A:38:71:9D id 204 time 28.70ms 4 bytes from 00:14:9A:38:71:9D id 205 time 41.69ms ^C6 sent, 6 received, 0% loss When I use the kbluetoothd tool to see the phone (sdp://motorola phone/), I see a konqueror window with icons for dial up networking, Hands Free Voice Gateway, and Headset Voice Gateway. If I click on any of them, I get a "open with/save/" dialog which is useless to me. deepthink:/etc/ppp/peers # rfcomm -a rfcomm0: 00:14:9A:38:71:9D channel 1 closed deepthink:/etc/ppp/peers # rfcomm listen rfcomm0: 00:14:9A:38:71:9D channel 1 closed deepthink:/etc/ppp/peers # rfcomm connect /dev/rfcomm0 Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Connection refused eepthink:/etc/ppp/peers # rfcomm show rfcomm0: 00:14:9A:38:71:9D channel 1 closed deepthink:/etc/ppp/peers # rfcomm listen rfcomm0: 00:14:9A:38:71:9D channel 1 closed deepthink:/etc/bluetooth # rfcomm connect /dev/rfcomm0 00:14:9A:38:71:9D 1 Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Connection refused What does the connection refused mean? Is there a problem with a socket locally or is that the phone is refusing? When I tried to pair them, it paired them, but then I got the same exact error. NOTE: On this phone all of the OBEX stuff is disabled, and can only be enabled with warranty-invalidating hacking, so I'm hesitant to enable it. However, the dialup networking works under Windows (as I said), so I just need to figure out how to do it under Linux. Thanks in advance.
