Question problem on working of bluetooth dongle
hello friends
i am a fresher in this field,and i use RHEL EL-4 and processor is pentium-4 and my problem is that the bluetooth dongle is not working properly.

Also i got another error message " Can't open HCI Socket.: Address family not supported
by protocol"
