Hello group,

I'm trying to get Bluetooth working on Slackware. I'm using version 13.0.

My Broadcom USB device is seen, and I can find Bluetooth devices in the
neighborhood and get services they have. But I can't figure out how to make
connections.

For example, my Nokia N86 is seen and ftp is among its services. I can
ping the phone with l2ping, and there are no errors.

It seems the Rfcomm utility is needed, and it's there. But it wants a device
at /dev/rfcomm0, and that isn't there. So how do we create this device?

Thank you.

Mike Keithley
