Hello,

I'm working on using a USB bluetooth dongle with DSL. According to the sources from a vanilla 2.4.26 kernel the bluetooth modules are located under drivers/bluetooth and net/bluetooth. However, these modules are missing in DSL (at least, I cannot find them under /lib/modules).
Compiling the 2.4 bluetooth modules on a Desktop PC (which runs a 2.6 kernel) and loading the module in DSL resulted in "couldn't find the kernel version the module was compiled for".
So my questions are:
- Where must I tweak/take care of to make the modules run under DSL?
- Alternatively: Has anybody experience with bluetooth + DSL and can provide valuable information or compiled modules?

Greetings,
AgRau

Grab the official KNOPPIX_V3.4-2004-05-17-EN
Those modules should work fine with DSL v0.9.x

been NOT succesful using bluetooth on Knoppix 3.4. Of course, had issues with XP too, but no more XP (yes!) Would like to see more bluetooth stuff worked out, but don't have the know-how to contribute.
