Has anyone got bluetooth working on a PandaBoard that is running a minimal file system (no GUI)? If so, would you mind posting instructions on how you did it?

Thanks!

From:  Ubuntu Precise 12.04 - TI OMAP Release PPA Update October 2012

Known Issues:
* BT is not supported - shall be fixed next month.

Maybe sometime soon.

Its curious to me that as far as I know, Bluetooth has never worked on the Pandaboard Linux builds, but when I played with an Android 3.2 build Bluetooth appeared to work, Although I did little more than see that it could scan for devices.

I never got the PandaBoard built-in bluetooth working, but it was easy to get an external dongle working. I got this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004LNXO28/ref=wms_ohs_product. It works great with the PB and Ubuntu.
