Conceptronic Bluetooth CBT100U Drivers

1 - Thanks for this great forum, so i can have some support regarding Knoppix OS. :wink:

My Problem: I'm trying to have in knoppix one in all solution, so i can discard Windows from my HDD, but i have a problem regarding my bluetooth device, wich i do internet share with my brother, so i really need this working.

You can see the device in here:

or

But as far as i know this device only have drivers for Windows :( , so no linux support.

My question: There is any other way that i can turn around this problem, if there isn't any drivers, can i use for instance Virtual Machine Workstation or Wine to open in Linux a window for windows and then support this device or what i'm saying is impossible at all??? :cry:

Many thanks for all your time
With best regards
Sniff :D

I've got the little 10m-ranged brother of your BT stick. Got it working with Gentoo like a charm - it's supported by Bluez. The downside of the story is that Bluez isn't included in Knoppix. Maybe I'll brew my own Knoppix with Bluetooth support some day...

Gentoo suport it by default_

With no configuration at all.... :D

Or what i need to do to make it working in gentoo
Please put it in detail because i-m kind of newbie in this bluetooth configurations in gnu linux.

Thanks for your help. :wink:
