The following requirements have to be fulfilled in order to install and use Affix package.
Install "affix-kernel" package. It installs necessary header files to /usr/include/affix directory, required to compile "affix" package.
Install "openobex" package. It is required if you would like to use Affix OBEX functionality.
Install "python" and "python GTK" library. It is used by PIN code helper application (/etc/affix/btsrv-gui).
In order to properly compile affix-kernel package please follow these steps:
Copy affix-xxx.tgz package to any directory (e.g. /usr/src/).
Unpack it: tar xvfz affix-xxx.tgz
Configure it: ./configure [options]
configure script accepts following options (--enable-FEATURE):
enable audio support (default): --enable-audio
enable SDP support (default): --enable-sdp
enable OBEX support (default): --enable-obex
enable Hands Free support - experimental: --enable-hfp
enable debugging support: --enable-debug
Compile it: make
Install it: make install
This step requires root privilege.
btctl - main control tool. So please consult "btctl" manual page for that.
