Hello,
I wanted to try this software and I have a BT dongle but i'm facing some problems.
I don't know if my dongle is compatible but Windows install it as "Cambridge Silicon Radio adapter".
First, I know that versions in Virtual PC's are not supported but I wanted to try this way just to see how it goes.
My bluetooh isn't being recognized by Ubuntu 11.10.
The lsusb returns me the message "unable to initialize libusb: -99"
Can please someone tell me if the reason of this is being installed on a virtual machine?
The other usb devices connected are the mouse and keyboard.
I apreciate some help since i'm very new with Linux...

Hi,
Does your Virtual PC version support USB devices?

I guess so since i can "hot plug" my G500 and it works.
I'm using the Virtual PC from Microsoft with Windows 7...
I've seen there's an option to enable USB in Virtual PC an I'm almost sure it's enable.
I'm at work right now but i'll try to confirm that.

Ok, so it seems that my Virtual PC didn't had any USB support...
I've installed Ubuntu wtith VMWare and the BT dongle is now detected.
But sadly, i guess it's not compatible...
The manufacturer says "not assigned (6502)" and there's nothing in the Chip version...
When i try to set the dongle address i got the error it could not be set.
Guess i'll have to buy a new dongle...

Re: Ubuntu bluetooth problem (libusb 99)
Your issue may be related to the virtual machine. Before buying a new dongle, you should try GIMX from a live USB key.

Ok, i'll give it a try this night.
But most likely my dongle it's not compatible. If i'm not mistaken i have it already about 3 years.
Don't know if the needed chip was already released in that time.
Thanks for your help mate.

Re: Ubuntu bluetooth problem (libusb 99)
A 3 year old dongle may be compatible. I believe CSR Bluecore 4 was released just after the BT 2.1+EDR specification (July 2007).
