Comment 13 for bug 374782

the commands (hcitool, sdptool search sp <BT-200 MAC addr>, sudo l2ping <MAC addr>, ls /dev/rfcomm0, and use of bluetooth setup via the tool bar icon) all indicated communication between devices and give results without errors. the dongle clearly communicates with the BT printer adapter. the goal is to set up a virtual serial port to be able to print wirelessly simular to use of BlueSoleil which worked with the same equipment via XP. i set all the permissions to rwx on the /dev/rfcomm0 file believing that might help. the initial post in this thread indicates a work around for the problem, but fixed in 9.10?

using the Sys/Admin/Printing I set the URI to to "serial:/dev/rfcomm0". when i use "print test page" then get the error msg which says "Cannot open /dev/rfcomm0: Permission denied"
