== Bluetooth and Linux quick howto ==


This method is using ussp-push, for this your device must support something called OBEX Object push. For this you need to have all the regular bluetooth stuff installed [bluez-utils,etc] and a little utility called [http://www.xmailserver.org/ussp-push.html ussp-push]

Now you need to find the bluetooth address of the device you are trying to send stuff to. 
 hcitool scan

you should then see a list like this one
        00:12:D1:8C:57:E5       BackBlerry
        00:0E:ED:B0:AF:34       The Brick

now you just need to find what channel the OBEX push service is on.
you should get a long list of stuff, but the one you are interested in is pretty obvious

 Service Name: OBEX Object Push
 Service RecHandle: 0x10001
 Service Class ID List:
  "OBEX Object Push" (0x1105)
 Protocol Descriptor List:
  "L2CAP" (0x0100)
  "RFCOMM" (0x0003)
    Channel: 9
  "OBEX" (0x0008)
 Language Base Attr List:
  code_ISO639: 0x454e
  encoding:    0x6a
  base_offset: 0x100
 Profile Descriptor List:
  "OBEX Object Push" (0x1105)
    Version: 0x0100

The good news is you only have to do this once, the address and the channel are pretty much permanent
Now for the easy bit.
  ussp-push  00:12:D1:8C:57:E5@9 hcid.conf mcid.conf

of course you can replace hcid.conf with whatever file you want. the second filename is what it will be received as on the device. I am only using hcid.conf as an example.
