Hi
I'm trying to install a bluetooth dial up connection in ubuntu but I'm having extreme difficulty in it. I need some help. I have followed the directions provided here:
http://www.spiration.co.uk/post/1307/Ubuntu%20Linux%20-%20Bluetooth%20and%20GPRS%20dialup%20connection
However, for some reason at this step "pon BluetoothDialup" it doesn't do anything. I need to get these files if possible, anyway I can get them offline?
First you need to install the bluetooth packages on your linux machine:
$sudo apt-get install bluez-utils
$sudo apt-get install blues-pin
Now you need to make sure you have the ppp package installed
$sudo apt-get install ppp
So technically, I can't install these packages due to there being no internet. Can someone help me in setting up a bluetooth connection in ubuntu? I'm in XP now, dual booting.
