Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

INTRODUCTION
The USB Bluetooth driver supports any USB Bluetooth device.
It currently works well with the Linux USB Bluetooth stack from Axis
(available at http://developer.axis.com/software/bluetooth/ ) and
has been rumored to work with other Linux USB Bluetooth stacks.
CONFIGURATION
Currently the driver can handle up to 256 different USB Bluetooth
devices at once.
If you are not using devfs:
The major number that the driver uses is 216 so to use the driver,
create the following nodes:
mknod /dev/ttyUB0 c 216 0
mknod /dev/ttyUB1 c 216 1
mknod /dev/ttyUB2 c 216 2
mknod /dev/ttyUB3 c 216 3
.
.
.
mknod /dev/ttyUB254 c 216 254
mknod /dev/ttyUB255 c 216 255
If you are using devfs:
The devices supported by this driver will show up as
/dev/usb/ttub/{0,1,...}
When the device is connected and recognized by the driver, the driver
will print to the system log, which node the device has been bound to.
CONTACT:
If anyone has any problems using this driver, please contact me, or

list, as well as a link to its searchable archive is at
