I don't even have any /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf. I did pair, trust and |
| 42 |
connect with bluetoothctl. Are you using bluetooth5 -- I never had |
| 43 |
these problems till the upgrade to 5. The device is pretty close to the |
| 44 |
computer and it does show up on the scan from hcitool. |

you spend it? |
