| Bluetooth Testing |
PC-BSD 9.1 will include a new GUI for managing bluetooth devices.
If you would like to assist in testing this GUI, you can compile and install the code on your PC-BSD 9.0 system as follows:
First, make sure that these two development packages are showing as installed in Control Panel ➜ System Manager ➜ System Packages ➜ Development:
- Development-VCS
- Development-Qt
As superuser, download the source and compile the Bluetooth Manager and Tray applications:
svn co svn://svn.pcbsd.org/pcbsd/current/src-qt4/ cd src-qt4/libpcbsd qmake-qt4 *.pro make && make install cd ../pc-bluetoothmanager qmake-qt4 *.pro make && make install cd ../pc-bluetoothtray qmake-qt4 *.pro make && make install
When finished, leave the superuser account and start the Bluetooth Manager:
pc-su pc-bluetoothmanager (will prompt for superuser password)
Alternately, place the Bluetooth Manager in the system tray:
pc-su pc-bluetoothtray (will prompt for superuser password)
Note that the Bluetooth Tray currently activates on right-click, but nothing activates on left-click as of yet.
If you try it out, let us know if you encounter any errors or need additional functionality. Feedback can be sent to the testing mailing list.
