Description of problem:
3Com Bluethooth PCMCIA Card Doesn't work in FC2 or FC3.

In FC1, Steps to install were
from distribution cd rpm -ivh bluez*
cp BT3CPCC.bin /etc/bluetooth/firmware
/etc/init.d/bluetooth start
...& then gnome-bluetooth-manager worked !

Have followed the same steps & in FC2 & now just installed FC3 but no joy.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bluez-hcidump-1.11-1 bluez-utils-2.10-2
gnome-bluetooth-0.5.1-5bluez-libs-2.10-2 bluez-pin-0.23-3 
bluez-bluefw-1.0-6  kernel-2.6.9-1.667 

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Clean Install FC3 (Hardware = HP Omnibook 6100)
2. rpm -ivh bluez*
3. get BT3CPCC.bin from
http://www.3com.com/products/en_US/result.jsp?selected=all&sort=effdt&order=desc&sku=3CRWB6096
4. do unzip -p btp1_1en.exe Drivers.W2k/BT3CPCC.bin > BT3CPCC.bin
5. cp BT3CPCC.bin /etc/bluetooth/firmware
6. /etc/init.d/bluetooth start
7. gnome-bluetooth-manger
    

Actual Results:  gnome-bluetooth-manager reports "could not find
bluetooth devices on system"

Expected Results:  gnome-bluetooth-manager to start & me to "scan" for
local devices ;-)

[SOLVED]
By luck I found a FAQ:
http://fcp.homelinux.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=72

and I assumed that all firmware should now go in /lib/firmware.. and
now it works :-)
