It was designed as a replacement for cables and other short-range technologies like IrDA. Bluetooth operates in personal area range that typically extends up to 10 meters. More information about Bluetooth can be found at http://www.bluetooth.com Linux Bluetooth subsystem consist of several layers: HCI Core (device and connection manager, scheduler) HCI Device drivers (interface to the hardware) L2CAP Module (L2CAP protocol) Say Y here to enable Linux Bluetooth support and to build HCI Core layer. To use Linux Bluetooth subsystem, you will need several user-space utilities like hciconfig and hcid. These utilities and updates to Bluetooth kernel modules are provided in the BlueZ package. For more information, see http://bluez.sf.net. If you want to compile HCI Core as module (hci.o) say M here. Not sure ? say N. CONFIG_BLUEZ_L2CAP L2CAP (Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol) provides connection oriented and connection-less data transport. L2CAP support is required for most Bluetooth applications. Say Y here to compile L2CAP support into the kernel or say M to compile it as module (l2cap.o). Not sure ? say M. CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUART Bluetooth HCI UART driver. This driver is required if you want to use Bluetooth devices with serial port interface. Say Y here to compile support for Bluetooth UART devices into the kernel or say M to compile it as module (hci_uart.o). Not sure ? say M. CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUSB Bluetooth HCI USB driver. This driver is required if you want to use Bluetooth devices with USB interface. Say Y here to compile support for Bluetooth USB devices into the kernel or say M to compile it as module (hci_usb.o). Not sure ? say M. CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIEMU Bluetooth Virtual HCI device driver. This driver is required if you want to use HCI Emulation software. Say Y here to compile support for Virtual HCI devices into the kernel or say M to compile it as module (hci_usb.o). Not sure ? say M.
