pppd 2.4.5 seem incompatible with blueman...

with pppd 2.4.3 rfcomm can be set from blueman but i didnt know how to test, what dialer to use.
maybe its much easier to create custom script which run when we press browse button in blueman ?
which we will choose to browse or to dial internet ?

I dont know the answer, I hope other dev can improve.
thank you

Blueman is a 2,680 KB download and Python is a 752 KB download on Ubuntu. How come they are 20 MEGABYTES EACH on this Bluetooth package for Puppy?

IVT has a Linux version which they say is for all Linuxes.
I get an error trying to run it.
I am away from my computer ATM, so I can't post the error now, but will if anyone is interested.

I have written to IVT support, as I was successful in installing Bluesoleil in Wine, but my bluetooth device wasn't show and thus used.
I wrote again and was referred to linux download, but that didn't work.
Can't quite remember what the issue was. I have to look and find my notes.
Also I think some software wasn't free.

I had some success with Blueman for file transfer. (up and down load)

I had other things to attend too, so I didn't pursue for the moment.

@Master_wrong

Maybe? Why maybe? Who made that package? They should know.

It doesn't seem to be related to dependencies. The package contains the dependencies separately. Blueman and Python stand on their own, and they're each ridiculously huge.

blueman.pet work in 5.2, but not in 528 because dbus system seem changed... i have to install from source again to make it work.

@stu
so i guess any other old bluetooth.pet will not work in 528 too.

I will try to complete blueman for puppy myself, it seem only need nmap and alsa.

Not sure i guess it depends on what is included in the .pet
I haven't got round to trying Lucid 528 yet - however i have just tried my Dpup bluetooth .pet in Lucid 525 lite to see what happens and it works, so i imagine it will also work in Lucid 528.

@stu90
hmmmm... maybe because the pet i make for 5.2 contain part of lucid 5.2 which broken the program when installed on 528 ?
because now the size of 528 pet were around 16M, when pet for 5.2 is 23 M.

thank for the info, i guess dpup bluetooth will work too in 528, and that will give more option for puppy user to handle bluetooth.

I downloaded things from the first post.

Lucid 5.2.8 Bluetooth working

#48 Post by tlcstat »

Greetings,
Install these two file from the Dpup post.

http://hotfile.com/dl/117232563/c197fe0 ... 6.pet.html
http://hotfile.com/dl/129175521/d604f21 ... 8.pet.html

Use the Bluetooth connection manager in the System Status menu to setup your devices.

Works with my machine no problem.
You may want to reboot after install.

Greetings.
I'm running lupu 5.2.8 on my laptop.
I have just installed the new python 2.6 and blueman 1.2.1 (both for 528) from the 1st page.
From my understanding I don't need to install BlueZ, do I?
But when I try to load the "Bluetooth Manager" I get this error message.
Hope someone can help me.
Cheers

Come on guys, please give me a hand.
I've talked to exxtreme down at the IRC channel and he told me he ran into the same issue that I did.
I must be missing some package that you guys have on your system.
Cheers
