I ditched the BlueSoleil drivers and switched to WIDCOMM. I followed the HOWTO-BlueToothNetworking instructions for Windows and WIDCOMM along with the dbus-scripts suggestion/bluetoothPAN script and now have the bluetooth PAN functioning properly, but it still requires some xterm commands to work.

I uncommented "# udhcpc -i bnep0," but I am unsure what PePPeRV is referring to when they say "comment the 2 lines above." Does that refer to "ifconfig..." and "route..." above the sleep command?

My steps are as follows:

1. Open xterm, sudo gainroot
2. pand -Q10 (accept network access on PC from n800)
3. pand -l (displays "bnep0 00:10:C6:91:18:F9 PANU)
4. Connect to network "BlueToothPan" using connection manager
5. udhcpc -i bnep0 (says deleting routers, route: no such process, and adding dns 192.169.0.1

At this point the internet works correctly, but with a little less automation that I would have liked from the script. Any thoughts on what might be the problem?

Additionally, there are a ton of echo statements in PePPeRV's script, but I never get any console output. Do I need to enable something to get the output from the bluetoothPAN script?

Thx!

EDIT: a shell script run from "osso-statusbar-cpu" automates the process, removing the xterm requirement
