Hi, everybody!

I own a very cheap Bluetooth dongle:

0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)

Then I installed the following:

Code: [Select]

gremlins/bluez-runit 20180226-1 (runit-world) [installed]
world/bluez 5.49-1 [installed]
world/bluez-hid2hci 5.49-1 [installed]
world/bluez-libs 5.49-1 [installed]

world/bluez-plugins 5.49-1 [installed]
world/bluez-utils-compat 5.47-1 [installed]
community/bluez-tools 0.2.0-1 [installed]

Ran:

Code: [Select]

# rc-service bluetooth start

$ bluetoothctl

Until this point everything has happiness; however, when I tried to make the dongle discoverable...

Code: [Select]

bluetooth]# discoverable on
Changing discoverable on succeeded
Agent unregistered
[DEL] Controller xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx Somename [default]
Waiting to connect to bluetoothd...

And in /var/log/messages:

Code: [Select]

Mar 19 14:05:40 PowerTuX kernel: bluetoothd[15598] segfault at 8 ip 00005648765bafd0 sp 00007fff8dc16248 error 4 in bluetoothd[564876557000+f8000]

Kernel is:

Code: [Select]

# uname -a
Linux PowerTuX 4.15.10-1-ck-bulldozer #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Mar 15 19:48:49 EDT 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux

desktop alternative, blueman, also segfaults when trying to make the device discoverable.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards.
