What bluetooth tools are available in Ubuntu to configure a bluetooth device. For example changing the frequency it uses, detecting and showing all bluetooth devices connected to the PC and any other settings that will help configure a bluetooth device.



For the moment I have 2 wireless bluetooth mice, 1 bluetooth keyboard and one bluetooth dongle so that other cellphones can connect to it and share mp3, images and other phone stuff.



dmesg tells me when I connect the mice and keyboard and they were detected and configure but there is no GUI applicacion to manage them and configure maybe some additional settings. The only bluetooth device I can actually configure is the dongle to connect to a cellphones.



Is there any bluetooth managers (GUI Based but terminal would work also) that I can use to configure the mice, keyboard and any other bluetooth devices?

After having installed the bluez-utils Install bluez-utils we have access to some nice command line tools to show and manage bluetooth devices:



hciconfig --all # shows all known devices
hcitool scan # shows devices that are connected
sdptool browse # shows available services on the remote device
