Can't file transfer via Bluetooth in FreeBSD
Hi, I recently shifted to FreeBSD-5.2 from Windows XP because I know there is a bluetooh support in these new 5.x versions. I was so glad that FreeBSD have improved a lot! However, I have a problem with installing or making the bluetooth file transfer work. Here are the details below: I followed the documentation by Pav on http://www.oook.cz/bsd/bluetooth.html. I was able to pair my Nokia 3660 with my FreeBSD-5.2 which has an MSI bluetooth dongle. I was able to discover other devices, and execute other built-in commands such as hccontrol, l2ping, l2control, sdptool etc. But, I noticed that the the basic file transfer called OBEX was not yet incorporated in the FreeBSD-5.2 and that I have to install an openobex or something. I have succesfully installed openobex from sourceforge, but it doesn't have the "obexapp" command. The i tried installing the "obexapp" from sourceforge too. The problem is that I cant install it. tar -zxvf obexapp-1.2.tar.gz (extracts two directories openobex-1.0.1/ and obexapp/) cd openobex-1.0.1 ./configure /usr/local/bin/make /usr/local/bin/make install cd obexapp (no ./configure and NO README!!!) so i tried, "make" or "/usr/local/bin/make" when i tried "make": banao# make Warning: Object directory not changed from original /usr/home/misoy/EDV/ Bluetooth/src/obexapp cc -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/openobex -g -Wsystem-headers -Werror -Wall -Wno-format-y2k -Wno-uninitialized -c main.c cc -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/openobex -g -Wsystem-headers -Werror -Wall -Wno-format-y2k -Wno-uninitialized -c client.c cc -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/openobex -g -Wsystem-headers -Werror -Wall -Wno-format-y2k -Wno-uninitialized -c event.c cc -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/openobex -g -Wsystem-headers -Werror -Wall -Wno-format-y2k -Wno-uninitialized -c sdp.c cc -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/openobex -g -Wsystem-headers -Werror -Wall -Wno-format-y2k -Wno-uninitialized -c server.c server.c: In function `obexapp_server': server.c:118: error: too many arguments to function `sdp_open_local' *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/home/misoy/EDV/Bluetooth/src/obexapp. using /usr/local/bin/make: banao# /usr/local/bin/make Makefile:23: *** missing separator.

In fact, with this software I think that some quite significant patching of code is required: % cd /usr/ports/comms/openobex % ls files/ patch-Makefile.in patch-src-obex.c patch-aclocal.m4patch-src-obex.h patch-configure.in patch-src-obex_const.h patch-ltmain.sh patch-src-obex_main.c patch-src-btobex.c patch-src-obex_transport.h patch-src-netbuf.h Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK pgpMNBl6TwEPC.pgp Description: PGP signature

But, its sad to say that I can't find any "openobex" ports in my machine. banao# ls /usr/ports/comms/openobex ls: /usr/ports/comms/openobex: No such file or directory I thought of actually using this openobex port but do you know how to find the ports if its not in the distribution? Im using FreeBSD-5.2 and KDE 3.0. Im actually searching the web for it but some sites dont have a link to the files to be downloaded. In case you know where to find the installer that would really work for FreeBSD-5.2, please send the link to me.

I advise you to install cvsup -- # pkg_add -r cvsup-without-gui and then use that to get an up to date copy of the ports tree. While you're at it, also install portupgrade(1) as that will make maintaining your installed ports into a doddle.
