SCO Files July MORs
Finally, SCO filed its MORs for July. Is anybody noticing they don't seem to be reorganizing?
I need to lighten up, yo. This is *bankruptcy* court, and your checkbook isn't supposed to balance out. Just spend, spend, spend, and who's to check your hand? You want 4 hotels on Park Place and 6 houses on Baltic Avenue? Why not? No one will ever hold you accountable. It's not like us little people, who have to, you know, pay our debts and all.
Page 16 says that professional fees for July were $340,960. For one month. That is more than SCO paid its employees and more than it made in net profit from the business that month, but who's counting? Obviously not the US Bankruptcy Court in Delaware.
Guess how much the professional fees total since bankruptcy began? $5,738,877. It means, as I read it, that instead of paying Novell what SCO owes in damages, it paid professionals to help them try to avoid it.
Then there's the millions for the IBM and Novell litigation, if I've read these MORs right.

btsco

BTSCO(4)						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						  BTSCO(4)

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.

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.
