Re: [Ekiga-list] Alsa-Bluetooth-Ekiga Howto?

[George Boyd <geboyd53 comcast net>]

Thanks for the info. I did finally track down the btsco. The problem I'm
having now is when I run  btsco 00:16:8F:17:A6:94 & (00:16:8F:17:A6:94
is the output from hcitool.scan).
I keep getting:

 Error: Failed to connect to SDP server: Permission denied
Assuming channel 2

Can't connect RFCOMM channel: Permission denied

I tried the sugggestion on littleowl website (apparently Ubunta has the
same problem). Bit it didn't work for me.

Also, I can't compile bluez utils because I get this error:
libhciserver.a(dbus-common.o): In function `unregister_sdp_record':
dbus-common.c:(.text+0x90): undefined reference to
`sdp_device_record_unregister_binary'
libhciserver.a(dbus-common.o): In function `register_sdp_binary':
dbus-common.c:(.text+0x106): undefined reference to

Even with these errors. The "headset" shows up as an audio device, but
doesn't work.

Any ideas on how to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

I just can't understand how root couldn't have permissions to access the
devices.

Thanks Again,
George
