Re: Bluetooth on IBM T30 (serial device?)

and more on the subject... according to the

http://www.linuxcare.com/labs/certs/ibm/thinkpad/t30/97u-rh80-sys.epl

usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x4bf/0x310)
        is not claimed by any active driver.

so it looks like T30 has USB Bluetooth adapter manufactured by TDK.
ng_ubt(4) driver supports TDK USB Bluetooth dongle (0x4bf/0x309 -
note different product id) and this dongle has CSR chip inside.

bottom line: if your T30 has the same device and TDK used CSR chip
in it then you will make it work.
