+====== Bluetooth ======
+===== Introduction =====
 This guide will help you to configure bluetooth, e.g. to use your phone as a modem.
 Do following steps as root.
 First of all you must install Slitaz packages related to bluetooth:
-  tazpkg get-install bluez
+  # tazpkg get-install bluez
-  tazpkg get-install linux-bluetooth
+  # tazpkg get-install linux-bluetooth
 The first package contains the Official Linux Bluetooth protocol stack www.bluez.org and the second contains the kernel modules related to bluetooth.
 Now you can launch the bluetooth daemon:
-  bluetoothd

-and load the module required by your local bluetooth device, this is very likely btusb

+If the command "hcitool dev" does not show you any hci* device you must detect which module you need and repeat the previous step until you have a hci* device.
 Now that you have hci* you can run the "hcitool scan" command to show you if there is any discoverable device nearby.
-So if you are searching e.g. your phone remember to put it in discoverable mode.
