i'm hoping that i can make bluetooth easier...

btw i was testing pybluez and blueman...
blueman need python dbus as the installer always complained that there was no python dbus... anyone know what is the needed version of python dbus for python 2.5.2 ?

ps: pybluez work

I did it, i mean...

i managed to apply jemimah gnome-applet into lucid... see pic.
libxbc from jemimah is not applicable on lucid. i use this instead.

@L18L
still no good, from python i type import dbus it says i need xml thing.
thank anyway.

I thought Jemimah had bluetooth working in Puppeee or Fluppy.

Maybe she has a PET laying about somewhere that might work in Lucid Puppy 5.2.5.

This bluetooth pet probably won't work here.

@smokey
libxcb-1.0.pet from jemimah is not installable in lucid, someone already reported that in the thread but he didnt upload the files nedeed.

btw i did use all the pet in the link that you give me, only libxcb-1.0.pet is not installable. which is why i posting this.

@Béèm
yes its nice, but its 431 inside.
thank i will try testing kde bluetooth

As I got my Blueman via PPM as a Ubuntu binary, I got all the deps with it, including python-dbus_0.83.0-1ubuntu3_i386.deb, but it doesn't seem to do anything.
I also tried everything from Ubuntu Lucid that had Dbus in the name, but no good either.
I wish I knew what I was doing Smile

@winduptoy
any chance that you use python 2.5 ?
i had similiar experience with it,
try to open terminal type :

python

import dbus

then there you see error and if you were lucky you can get the right package...
i myself use dbus-python-0.71... because higher version may need newer python too.

right now i'm trying to use python 26, there is no error, but now i'm still struggling to install blueman itself. i have to build lot of the modul and package from source such as gtk, gobject etc.

WindUpToy · Posted: Sun 24 Apr 2011, 18:16 Post subject:

hmmm...

# python
Python 2.6.4 (r264:75706, Nov 19 2009, 02:54:25)
[GCC 4.2.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import dbus
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named dbus
>>>

That is using python-dbus_0.83. which came with bluemon.

@winduptoys...

well...
in my case
I compile some package, install some deb from debian, also some deb from ubuntu:

dbus-python-0.71.tar.gz
libffi-dev_3.0.9-1_i386.deb
Pyrex-0.9.9.tar.gz
python-cairo-dev_1.4.12-1.2_all.deb
python-gobject-dev_2.21.4+is.2.21.3-1_all.deb
python-notify_0.1.1-2+b2_i386.deb

but thats wrong because when i compile blueman_1.21.orig.tar.gz
it always says that gobject is not found.

the reason...
some module were inside /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages
instead /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages.

creating link on /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages seem help.
btw a module is a folder... so i just link the folder. i dont know if this is wrong.

blueman installed correctly.
now i am trying to run it.

so is there any case that your python is not from ubuntu ?

I got python at the same time as bluemon and the other deps from Ubuntu, using PuppyPackageManager.

Interesting page about the Python-2.6 bug.
I'll read it again and see if I can pick up anything from it.

so l learn new lesson today...

when install from source :
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

when install python module (cannot run ./configure)
python setup.py install --prefix=/usr

UPDATE !!! 26-apr

i use these package, which makes blueman installed without error:

blueman_1.21.orig.tar.gz
dbus-python-0.83.2.tar.gz
gnome-python-2.20.0.tar.gz
intltool-0.35.0.tar.gz
libffi_3.0.9.orig.tar.gz
libtool_2.4.orig.tar.gz
notify-python_0.1.1.orig.tar.gz
py2cairo-1.8.10.tar.gz
pygobject-2.16.0.tar.gz
pygtk-2.13.0.tar.gz
Pyrex-0.9.9.tar.gz

install also jemimah's package

then come error... again

i get good result today after i learn that

WindUpToy · Posted: Tue 26 Apr 2011, 07:33 Post subject:

Today I installed it in U-horrible-Buntu and and it ran, but needed Blues to be running. I don't know how to do that.

You may have discovered the secret: the order of installation.
I will try your way tomorrow.

Just as a matter of interest, these are the files I was working with.

Could you please post a link to the files you use?

Thanks.

Hi,

surely I'll more than glad if you can test them too. thanks for the list of file, it may useful.
here is the file

http://hotfile.com/dl/115852740/4b4ef30/bluman-puppy.tar.gz.html

all you need todo is
1.make sure your puppy installed with python and compiler(devs).
2. install jemimah bluetooth package
3. extract bluman-puppy.tar.gz file into root EDIT: then install libpcre.la.pet
4. run script, it may takes few minute, but after it stop and you can see some lines with exit blueman written on it then try press enter. there should be no error, i already try 2-3 times here.
(to produce such my screenshot delete this line in the script)
cd gnome-python-2.20.0
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install
cd ..

5. run blueman-applet

edit: i run this before i run blueman
dbus-uuidgen --ensure &
dbus-daemon --system
modprobe bluetooth
modprobe l2cap
modprobe rfcomm
modprobe btusb
hciconfig hci0 up
hciconfig hci0 class 0x3e0100
mknod -m 666 /dev/rfcomm0 c 216 0
hcitool scan
bluetoothd

ps: it may be a good idea to test with your .deb files too in case that i cannot send files because the some plugin are not available in my package yet.
