Ha. I was about to start out with how I can guess how complicated managing an operating system is. Then I see the last line of your email saying, "How about if you don't know, stop making guesses". My comments only apply to my experience coding for bluetooth on mobile devices and it was just overc

Re: Bluetooth support status

ok, thanks. Bluetooth is overcomplicated and if it's not managed properly it just opens up the attack surface for no reason. It definitely makes some things easy but there are always workarounds. On Tue, Aug 6, 2019 at 11:52 PM Consus wrote: > On 17:12 Tue 06 Aug, John Brahy wrote: &

Hello, Just curious if there was any change in OpenBSD supporting bluetooth. In this commit from tedu@ it's saying that support was ripped out of the kernel because it never really worked. https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=140511572108715&w=2 man -k blue brings up nothing appros. Thanks, JB
