Bluetooth speakers and Salix KDE 13.37

[globetrotterdk]

I purchased two Nokia - Play 360° MD-50W speakers for my N9 and was hoping that I could also use them with my netbook. I have an Asus Bluetooth v2.1 with ERT dongle, that works with my netbook and also appears to pair the speakers with my Salix KDE 13.37 system. Bluetooth manager registers a data stream between the speakers and the netbook, but there just isn't anything that comes out of the speakers. I imagine that this has something to do with ALSA, but I can't see any extra bluetooth speaker section where I can adjust the volume. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Thank you for the info. Sorry for the late reply. I went into a coma when I saw that this was going to turn into one of those complicated projects of mine that I don't have the experience to sort out myself

It's called the Linux learning curve

Sometimes the game may not really be worth the candle, but who plays cards to make money?

In pseudo-code:

Code: Select all

myKnowledgeDegree := someArbitaryStartValue

FUNCTION LearnLinux()
  REPEAT FOREVER  // NP problem
    problem := FindANewProblem()
    REPEAT WHILE knowledgeRequired(problem) < myKnowledgeDegree AND NOT solved  // we never change solved, this is handled by some supernatural magic, good luck :P
      BangYourHead()
      knowledgeDegree += WeirdNotReallyRandomInteger()  // WeirdNotReallyRandomInteger() could be negative as well but more likely positive
    END
  END
END
