Special Forums Cybersecurity Installation of SCO OS on a assembled Pentium IV system Post 53194 by LivinFree on Wednesday 7th of July 2004 08:29:40 PM

I've never personally installed SCO Unix, but I've heard that it's very picky about it's hardware.

For a legacy data-migration project I am aware of at work, for example, one of the groups was trying to build a second SCO box with the same software as the current (very very old) box, for testing purposes. In order to run it on an old PII they found in storage a patch had to be applied.

Now, I'm sure you're using a more current version than that, but you may run into the same issues. You may need to contact SCO support, if you're signed up with a contract.

NAME
btsco -- Bluetooth SCO Audio SYNOPSIS
btsco* at bthub? audio* at audiobus? DESCRIPTION
The btsco driver provides support for Bluetooth SCO Audio devices through the audio(4) driver. The btsco driver must be configured at run time with the btdevctl(8) program. The following properties are used by the btsco driver during autoconfiguration: local-bdaddr Local device address. remote-bdaddr Remote device address. service-name The btsco driver matches the 'HF' and 'HSET' services. For the 'HF' service, the btsco device will, on open(2), listen for incom- ing connections from the remote device. Otherwise, btsco will attempt to initiate a connection to the remote device. rfcomm-channel This integer value is not used directly, but will be stored and passed via the BTSCO_INFO ioctl as below: SCO connections require a baseband connection between the two devices before they can be created. The btsco driver does not create this, but can provide information to facilitate an application setting up a control channel prior to use, via the BTSCO_INFO ioctl(2) call on the mixer device, which returns a btsco_info structure as follows: #include <dev/bluetooth/btsco.h> struct btsco_info { bdaddr_t laddr; /* controller bdaddr */ bdaddr_t raddr; /* headset bdaddr */ uint8_t channel; /* RFCOMM channel */ int vgs; /* mixer index speaker */ int vgm; /* mixer index mic */ }; #define BTSCO_INFO _IOR('b', 16, struct btsco_info) The btsco driver can be configured to act in Connect or Listen mode. In Connect mode, the btsco driver will initiate a connection to the remote device on an open(2) call, whereas in Listen mode, open(2) will block until the remote device initiates the connection. SEE ALSO
bthset(1), ioctl(2), audio(4), bluetooth(4), bthub(4), btdevctl(8) HISTORY
The btsco driver was written for NetBSD 4.0 by Iain Hibbert under the sponsorship of Itronix, Inc. BUGS
btsco takes no notice of the HCI Voice Setting in the Bluetooth controller, and this must be 0x0060 (the default) as alternate values are currently unsupported. BSD
