BlueZ

+

BlueZ is an implementation of the +Bluetooth standard. This entry features +the BlueZ package and all software that is based on it.

+

Setup

+

On most Linux distributions BlueZ can be +installed with the bluez package. Additionally the +bluez-utils package needs to be installed. To load the +kernel module modprobe btusb needs to be run. Afterwards +the service +can be started and enabled by running the following commands.

+
systemctl start bluetooth.service
+systemctl enable bluetooth.service
+

Usage

+

The Bluetooth features can be managed by different types of +front-ends.

+
    +
  • bluetoothctl is a command-line interface included in +the bluez-utils package
    • +
  • bluetuith can be used as a bluetooth manager with a terminal user interface. It is +included in a package of the same name, that needs to be installed +before usage.
