Will be interesting to know if "bluez_4.101-streaming.pet" can work with Precise ? Slacko ? Racy ? Lupu ? The Python+Bluez stack is very distro-specific. I built a working version for Precise 571 out of debs. But there were kernel driver problems with certain BT dongles. I tried to build ...

Now, if somebody can tell me how to get youtube to send sound to my bluetooth headset, I would be most grateful. I could not get that to work either. I even changed asound.conf to make btheadset the default ouput, but all I got was static. Being able to get Bluetooth Headset working with DeadBeef S...

I am very happy because now I can get sound to stream to my Bluetooth Headset using "bluez_4.101-streaming.pet" in Tahrpup 6.01 no pae (testing folder version). VLC works SMplayer works Now, if somebody can tell me how to get youtube to send sound to my bluetooth headset, I would be most g...

@pchan: I am sending you a PM. I installed the pet Click on the Bluetooth icon on the tray. Started bt file manager. Click on check > a window open and close rapidly. Click on make discoverable > a window open up and wait for pairing 0000 On mobile phone, started Bluetooth searching for device > co...

How to Transfer Files using Bluetooth This package is a companion to tempestuous' bluez_4.101-streaming.pet. It contains the tools for performing file transfers between Puppy and a remote BT device like a phone. However, it needs testing. If you are interested, post a message and I will provide som...

hi pchan tahrpup 6.0.1 has different kernel sources you need the ones that say 'update' quickpet>>useful tab>>>kernel src plus you need the devx but i guess you knew that[/url] Thanks 666philb, I used the wrong kernel sources I think because it was the one that didn't say "update." I will...

666philb, Just want to let you know that "Tahrpup 6.01 testing No PAE" is running very well in my MSI U270 netbook 11 inch AMD Dual Core E450 Wireless : RTL8192ce (provided by rcrsn51) Bluetooth Headset : (instructions and program provided by tempestuous and rcrsn51) Network Share : YASSM ...

@pchan: Here is one more question. If you run your WiFi and BT streaming audio at the same time, is there any interference? Does that btcoexist package have any value? I didn't sense any interference. In fact, while watching a short movie using my Bluetooth Headset, I was downloading a 70 mb file. ...

But you should be able to "hard-code" the smplayer configuration file - open /root/.config/smplayer/smplayer.ini in Geany, and find the line that starts with - driver\audio_output=... change it to - driver\audio_output="alsa:device=bluetooth" Make sure you include the quotation ...

Oh no, Another issue cropped up. Deadbeef was OK. Even after restart, pairing was maintained. smplayer 14.9.0 > under preference > audio output > options to choose bluetooth headset never showed up. In VLC 2.1.4 > tried alsa audio output > bt headset > nothing. (Difficult to understand why DeadBeef ...

tempestuous and rcrsn51, I am too excited to write this report. Very happy indeed! I tried again "bluez_4.101-streaming.pet" using fresh Tahrpup 6.01 testing no pae. Straightaway > "hciconfig hci0 up" before "hcitool scan" sh-4.3# rfkill list 0: phy0: wlan Soft blocked:...

pchan, I wonder if you can't bring your USB interface to life just with this command - hciconfig hci0 up If that appears to fail, try these more comprehensive options - hciconfig hci0 down hciconfig hci0 reset hciconfig hci0 up If any of that appears successful, go ahead and try - hcitool scan temp...

Your LinuxLite is not using btcoexist, so that's not the issue. Are you also running Tahrpup in Vbox? It's hard to track down hardware problems in that environment. All you need to test this is a clean install of Tahrpup and the bluez-streaming PET by tempestuous. No, i am not running tahrpup in a ...

I don't understand that. In Tahrpup NO-PAE, I installed the rtl8192ce_tahrpup_nopae-k3.14.20.pet and the rtl8192ce_btcoexist_tahrpup_nopae-k3.14.20.pet. I ran "modprobe rtl8192ce" and "modprobe btcoexist". I did NOT get that error. You should not need to run the first modprobe c...

@pchan: Install this PET. Then run modprobe btcoexist Test your bluetooth. Hi rcrsn51, I ran "modprobe btcoexist" Received error (see attached txt file) Thanks for helping. If you can succeed in getting an inbuilt bluetooth working, it is great! If it is not successful, don't worry. As i ...

This is for Tahrpup NO-PAE?

Yes, I am using Tahrpup no pae. Thanks

I will try it.


will also try these as soon as I log in to puppy again sometimes later. Cos now I am on another partition enjoying my Bluetooth headset.

rmmod btusb
modprobe btusb


Thanks rcrsn51 as always!

Has the Bluetooth icon in the system tray turned blue? Yes From the results of your rfkill command, it looks like your local Bluetooth device is part of your internal WiFi card. Yes, it is a built in bluetooth. Is the BT device detected by "lsusb"? # lsusb Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003...

tempestuous, rcrsn51,

First attempt -> result : not successful!


# rfkill list
0: phy0: wlan
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: hci0: bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
# hcitool scan
Device is not available: No such device

Some hints: 1. To check your BT setup, run: bluez-test-device list 2. To delete a device, run: bluez-test-device remove xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx 3. I found that ALSA didn't always detect my BT speaker immediately after setup. A reboot may be required to get it working. is I am going to give this a try. It...
