Bluetooth Implementation in DE2-115 with uClinux

Hi,

--- Quote Start ---

I want to implement Bluetooth in Altera DE2-115. The board has a usb host (cy7c67200).

I'm considering to use a bluetooth usb dongle to plug into this usb host to receive data from Arduino (which has a Bluetooth module with XBee-shield).

It's easy from the kernel side, if you can use the USB host. To install the Bluetooth drivers, select in the menuconfig like

 Networking support  --->
  <*>   Bluetooth subsystem support  --->
           -- Bluetooth subsystem support
            <*>   L2CAP protocol support
            <*>   SCO links support
            <*>   RFCOMM protocol support
                      RFCOMM TTY support
            <*>   BNEP protocol support
                      Multicast filter support
                      Protocol filter support
            <*>   HIDP protocol support 
                Bluetooth device drivers  --->
                    <*> HCI USB driver 
                    <*> HCI BCM203x USB driver 

.

But from the software side, you need many things, dbus, bluez-utils,and python etc.

I tested two Bluetooth USB dongles, CSR8510 and Broadcom BCM20702A0 on DE2-115

boards, but the combination CSR8510+CY7C67200 will not work well.

Later, I will upload my test case on Altera Wiki.
