From Salix OS
Jump to: navigation, search

Installing firmware :

Bluetooth should be working out-of-the-box if you selected the FULL installation set . But if you didn't choose FULL and you want to have your bluetooth hardware working you can install these packages :

bluez
bluez-firmware 
bluez-hcidump

using the gslapt package manager


Bluetooth frontend :

Here it depends on the salix flavor you chose ( eg : if you have chose KDE you should be able to find the frontend to deal with the bluetooth ) But if you don't have the program that deals with bluez or you dont see the bluetooth icon in the notification are then you should be installing :

blueman 

a lightweight Bluetooth manager which can get the job done for you .
