You didn't quote the output he was likely refering to:

"add-passkey" isn't a tool in bluez-utils 3.25. Where ever it came from, I 
think he meant not to use it. Years ago I used Slackware, and it never 
installed stuff in /usr/local. Unless it underwent a fundimental change (and 
that's hard to image if you know how Patrick is) that looks like a 3rd-party 
or user add-on.

Same here, X isn't mandatory, only if you use a graphical bluetooth tool in 
GNOME or KDE, which I don't. The bluez-utils command line tools work fine for 
me. There's two which I use for my headset. I posted a full description of it 
a few issues back, but the pass/PIN part consists of starting

passkey-agent --default <PIN> <bt address of remote device> &
auth-agent &

after sdpd & hcid are up, but before you try and use the headset. After that, 
turn on the headset. Many look for a audio service to pair with. Mine does. On 
the Jabra I use, there is a button on the side. Pressing it causes it to try 
to pair with the computer. At that time, passkey-agent and auth-agent answer, 
and output to the console that they did get a request. After a few seconds, 
you should see the headset with 'hcitool con '. If you don't send sound, it 
may disconnect after some time. If it does, pressing again re-starts the 
process. If yours doesn't have such a button/setup, you could try to pair from 
the other side, computer to device. I believe that's 'hcitool cc <address>' 
then 'hcitool auth <address>' but my headset doesn't seem to like to operate 
this way and wants to disconnect quickly due to not being used for sound.

If I'm not wrong it's not your headset the one that closes the
connection, but rather the kernel.

Solution:
ADDR=<SOMETHING> hcitootl cc $ADDR; hcitool auth $ADDR

Still not the preferred way but it works.

I was of the impression that passkey-agent and auth-agent were 
unsupported/sample programs.  Am I correct?
As far as I can tell, they are undocumented, neither in the tarball, nor in 
the wiki (aside from a few brief mentions)
I don't have a full build system up right now, but judging from the various 
Makefile.in files in the tarball, it appears they are not built by default.
Debian does not distribute them-- does any distribution?

When I set up my bluetooth headphones back in December, the only way I could 
figure out to do it was to switch window managers to something compatible with 
the gnome bluetooth-applet.  I'd be very happy to hear that there is now a 
supported command-line app for this.

Russel is it much asking that you don't break the threads? It's hard to
track your mails.

If this doesn't work, then you have something else going on, maybe
you're missing the passkey agent or something.

[Bluez-users] failed PIN Code Request

[Russell A. Bell]

	Quoth jayjwa:
	'Years ago I used Slackware, and it never installed stuff in
/usr/local. Unless it underwent a fundimental change (and that's hard
to image if you know how Patrick is) that looks like a 3rd-party or

	I built my bluetooth stuff from source so I could have the
latest.  I mentioned Slackware because everything I don't build from
source comes from Slackware.

	'passkey-agent --default <PIN> <bt address of remote device> &
	'auth-agent &'
	This doesn't work for me.

	'On the Jabra I use, there is a button on the side. Pressing
it causes it to try to pair with the computer. At that time,
passkey-agent and auth-agent answer, and output to the console that
they did get a request.'
	I have a Motorola HS850.  The instructions tell me to close
it, press the button for a few seconds until the light comes on, then
open it (which turns it on), then its ready to pair for a few seconds.
I run:
	 hcitool cc $headset

and get:

	Can't create connection: Connection timed out

Speaking into the headset doesn't help.

hcidump returns:

this is from an odd Debian installation. Using that is a bad thing. Kill
all these processes and simply log into the GNOME or KDE desktop and use
their Bluetooth applet.

[Bluez-users] failed PIN Code Request

[Russell A. Bell]

	When I try to connect to my headset (00:13:17:DD:D0:86) does
this hcidump:

	> HCI Event: PIN Code Request (0x16) plen 6
	    bdaddr 00:13:17:DD:D0:86
	> HCI Event: Connect Complete (0x03) plen 11
	    status 0x22 handle 0 bdaddr 00:13:17:DD:D0:86 type ACL encrypt 0x00
	    Error: LMP Response Timeout

reveal that the headset has asked my computer for a PIN Code and not
received one in time?

	20945 tty6     S      0:00 /usr/local/lib/bluetooth/add-passkey 00:13:17:DD:D0:86

is in the process list.  Does this mean that add-passkey isn't
working?
