Possible Kernel patch/hack needed, for use of Ambicom BT2000 CF
adapter...

I am having difficulties using my CF/PCCard Bluetooth adapter from
Ambicom. I have found similar error messages, associated with an
individual that was attempting to get his palm to sync with BSD, back in
2003. The respondent to the individual's inquiry, indicated a patch,
and the subsequent response was that the patch worked. I am unable to
locate the archived mail, via google, however, I am new to patching, and
have not yet been able to figure out where I might do so. I get
continuous loop of errors when attempting to use the rc.bluetooth
script, or hcseriald with the correct ttyd4 device.
Can anyone indicate where I might find a way to patch this problem, or
if I may be able to edit some src, that has to do with this device
interface driver? (sio4)
I get the following in my dmesg output while executing the following:
>hcseriald -d -f /dev/ttyd4 -n sio4 -s 115200
>ng_h4_input: sio4 - ignoring unknown packet type=0
>ng_h4_input: sio4 - ignoring unknown packet type=0x80
>dmesg output for the connection renders the following:
>sio4: <Compact Flash Bluetooth Card> at port 0x3e8-0x3ef irq 11
>function 0 config 2 on pccard1
>sio4: type 16550A
>sio4: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode
I am stuck, and unable to get any farther than the start of hcseriald.
I am unable to use my bluetooth at all, because I am unable to even find
a good howto for using hcseriald or even how I am supposed to connect
the interface even if I can use hcseriald. Nothing ever happens other
than the output listed above.
my system is as follows:
FreeBSD 5.3-Release
Bluetooth CF Adapter: Ambicom BT2000 via PCCard CF adapter
Asus M6BN
Please give some direction. I am at a loss.
