Example for start system session
dbus-uuidgen --ensure
dbus-daemon --system

command:

dbus-uuidgen --ensure

no problem,

however, the command;

Code: Select all

root# dbus-daemon --system
Failed to start message bus: The pid file "/var/run/dbus/dbus.pid" exists, if the message bus is not running, remove this file

If I erase the file mentioned, dbus-daemon --system works but puppybt continues to fail.

in my system exist file /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket

May be for testing you commented string 14 in script puppybt?
Also good test from root:
killall bluetoothd
bluetoothd
if no errors - dbus session work good and my check not need.

I also have the file /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket.

I commented out line 14 as you suggested and now the feedback from terminal is this,

Code: Select all

root# puppybt

Yes, always as root.

may be need restart dbus for read /etc/dbus-1/system.d/bluetooth.conf
I launch Tahr 6.0.5 virtual machine, use command

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/messagebus reload

for load config /etc/dbus-1/system.d/bluetooth.conf

you load puppybt.sfs on system boot, or use manual load sfs?

Posted: **Thu 05 Jul 2018, 02:00**

FOR ALL MAINTEINER:
1. I think it's better to load sfs at system startup. sfs have udev rules and startup script /etc/xdg/autostart/bluetooth.desktop for autostart tray applet. For ROX panel may be need change autostart method.
2. The structure of the module will vary slightly for different distributions. This is normal because the location of the files in different distributions is different (for example /lib/udev or /usr/lib/udev)

I'm running upupbb 18.05.

I got "puppybt" to run but I could not get it to pair with my bluetooth mouse.

I edited "puppybt" to change line 14 from

Code: Select all

[ -e /run/dbus/system_bus_socket ]

to

Code: Select all

[ -e /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket ]

.

I ran "bluetooth.sh", it seemed to run to completion, but it produced no output.
I then ran "puppybt".

A "scanning" thingy appeared on the screen, and it seemed to find something but neither "pair" button produced a sucessful pair.

sorry i dont now way for connect mouse via bluez5, may be you send me screen puppybt with recognized mouse and bluetoothctl info you_mac_moise

I think that the mouse should be connected automatically at boot time and the configuration should be done only once. We will strive for this, in the script bluetooth.sh reserved string for connect hid (mouse, keyboard etc.).

I edited "puppybt" to change line 14 from

i change script on github, line 14 not need how.

this script for launch applet on start panel ex. Lxpanel. Not needed for puppybt.

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately it's not a high priority for me at the moment, and I need to research bluetoothctl. So it may be a little while before I get back with more info.

Ok, I got puppybt to recognise, pair, and connect to my Logitech M337 bluetooth mouse. And the mouse works fine.
The difference is that I unpaired it from Windows 8, on the same machine, before I tried it on Puppy.

But when I reboot, I've got to manually run puppybt and connect to the mouse again.
How do I get it to automatically connect on reboot?

Well I sorted this too.
I appended "AutoEnable=true" to /etc/bluetooth/main.conf.
And I made a symbolic link from /usr/bin/bluetooth.sh to /root/Startup/bluetooth.sh.

On reboot, I get a blue bluetooth icon in my tray, and my bluetooth mouse works.

No, it does not, at least it doesn't in the Puppies I use, e.g. xenialpup, upupbb.

After getting my bluetooth mouse to work, my wifi became very slow and flaky.
Apparently this is a known problem with some wifi drivers.
It is reported that the interference is caused by bluetooth and wifi competing for the 2.4GHz wireless.
Fortunately my local wifi acces point (router) provides a network in both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands.
So I re-configured the laptop to connect to the 5GHz network, problem solved.

There are problems with this bluetooth device, there are problem reports all over the internet.

check lsmod or dmesg (btusb, bluetooth kernel module launched?)
lsusb not guarantee that the device works!

bluetooth.sh - script for autolaunch with xorg starts, run only puppybt for testing.
Check update puppybt from github, i not upload latest module because I need to solve the problem with simple pair device.
