bluetooth errors on boot with dongle already attached

[Christopher McCarley]

I tried the loader.conf thing at some point, but I will try it again more methodically.  At least I know I am not missing something obvious.
Thanks for the reply,
Chris

hmm... never saw that one

If I don't compile ng_bluetooth into the kernel, it works a little better in that I can manually kldload ng_ubt, etc. to get bluetooth to come up.  However, *I still have to unplug and plug back in the dongle* before doing this.

how about loading ng_ubt from the loader? i.e. add

ng_ubt_load="YES"

to your loader.conf and reboot. you do not really need to compile
bluetooth stuff into the kernel as long as you load ng_ubt(4) early
(i.e. from loader).

> Is there a known issue related to this?  My goal is to run bluetooth on an appliance environment so I really want to get it to work without having to physically touch it.  I will continue to debug, but after trying a number of things so far, I want  to make sure I am not beating my head against the wall for a known issue.  I see this on FreeBSD 6.1 and 6.2 versions.

like i said, i never seen it before. it could be some weird usb issue.

thanks,
max
