/usr/local/sbin/bluetooth/rtk_hciattach -n -s 115200 /dev/ttyS1 rtk_h5 > /usr/local/sbin/bluetooth/hciattach.txt 2>&1 &
If my understanding is correct it should provide the same functionality even if a little oddly. The package as described will insert the (bin) and set up both pieces required to provide linux functionality at boot time rather then the mechanism via the desktop. Yes it is a bit like the chicken and the egg, you must have bluetooth pre configured to see any benefit. Incremental steps in slaying the dragon... movement toward a fully functional OS on new hardware is always a slow and winding road. Not to mention QA aspect. But we enjoy the ride! Please correct me if my interpretation is erroneous.
