Bluetooth : Blueman dbus error

Hello dear archers,

I am facing a problem trying to setup bluetooth at my desktop pc. It is a USB Bluetooth donge.
I followed http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth but i cannot launch blueman-manager.
I get the following error :

Connection to BlueZ failed
Bluez daemon is not running, blueman-manager cannot continue.

Further in the wiki i tried

[razor@RAZPC-LIN ~]$ hcitool scan
Scanning ...

    00:22:98:1E:E1:C7    1 mouni stin axladia

So the bluetooth device is actually working. Then i tried using the bluez-simple-agent:

dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.bluez was not provided by any .service files

I have installed all the python packages for bluetooth ( dbus-python pygobject python-pybluez )

Do you have any idea what is going wrong?

Re: Bluetooth : Blueman dbus error

Hi,

You have already started the following services?

/etc/rc.d/dbus start
/etc/rc.d/bluetooth start

Re: Bluetooth : Blueman dbus error

oh yes, sorry forgot to mention, both of them are started. here is my /etc/conf.d/bluetooth

[razor@RAZPC-LIN ~]$ cat /etc/conf.d/bluetooth
# Bluetooth configuraton file

# Bluetooth services (allowed values are "true" and "false")

# Run the bluetoothd daemon (default: true)
#DAEMON_ENABLE="false"

# Run hid2hci (default: false)
HID2HCI_ENABLE="true"

# Run the sdp daemon (default: false)
# If this is disabled, hcid's internal sdp daemon will be used
SDPD_ENABLE="true"

# Run the bluetooth HID daemon (default: false)
HIDD_ENABLE="true"

# Activate rfcomm ports (default: false)
RFCOMM_ENABLE="true"

# Run bluetooth dial-up networking daemon (default: false)
#DUND_ENABLE="true"

# Run bluetooth PAN daemon (default: false)
#PAND_ENABLE="true"

# rfcomm configuration file (default: /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf)
RFCOMM_CONFIG="/etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf"

# Options for hidd, dund and pand (default: none)
#HIDD_OPTIONS=""
#DUND_OPTIONS=""
#PAND_OPTIONS=""

HAL and other services like Avahi which require dbus work as expected. Does this .service file lie anywhere so i can check if it exists or it is created dynamically uppon bluetooth daemon startup?

Thanks for your reply.
