        Quote from Mynaard,

        When I had to get hearing aids, it just so happens that the new ones are made Bluetooth compatible.
        Soooo, I figured I may as well take advantage of the situation.

        Makes sense comfort wise as they should fit your hearing curve, and nice with hands free for phone use.

        If you get really stuck it might be worth playing with a USB to bluetooth transmitter, they are cheap
        and good, there the pairing is with the dongle not the operating system. Works all over the place,
        in car, TV etc. Majority are plug and play, usb stick size. Sounds nice, where USB sound works no issue.
        about 9 Euro on amazon..

        Will see if I can find how to run one with my soundcard, only 3.5 mm jacks there.

          Hi Mynaardt,
          when bluetooth device and phone is in pairing mode: my phone shows me the MAC adress and asks if I want to pair
          with that device, after pairing I can see the adress in settings, device connections. That is as far as I am aware
          standard in android.

          I am not familiar with hearing aids which can be paired with bluetooth, but the proceedure will be same as my
          ear buds.

          Thanks, Moddit.

          I’ll potter around with that tomorrow. After having some Turkish style coffee (read; caffeinated tar in a cup). It won’t hurt to get a better understanding of this Bluetooth business.

              Probably you need to install pulseaudio and pulseaudio-module-bluetooth for pairing and sound transfer with bluetooth.
              Please look also here,

              Thanks, caprea.
              I will look that up.

              It should be pretty obvious by now that I’ve not delved into Bluetooth before, so thank you so much for the help, Everyone!

                Hi mynaardt,
                Please read the MAC adresses from your phone when in pairing mode or after pairing.
                @least on android real easy way to id devices.

                Thanks for that, Moddit.

                Since I seldom look for things to do with Bluetooth; do I find that MAC address in my phone’s Android settings, or elsewhere?

                Thanks again for the reply.

                  Try identifying the manufacturer using device’s MAC address (the ID codes you mention): https://zsecurity.org/how-to-differ-some-devices-using-just-their-mac-address/
                  I tried several web-pages on the MAC you mention but no result returned (database is probably incomplete).
                  E.g. search at https://mac.lc/

                  And that probably explains why there is no name mentioned, just the MAC address.
                  Hence I guess that try-error and keeping a written database (e.g. a text file with MAC and human-readable/understandable identifier/description) is the best way to go.

                  If you wish to find more results, try a web-search and narrow it to antiX forum web pages:
                  bluetooth site:www.antixforum.com
                  This is sometimes more efficient when searching the forum.

                  Hi Sabok:

                  Thanks for that; I’ll see if I can find that MAC address for the hearing aids.
                  And at least “MAC address” gives me something more useful to look up than “magic numbers”.

                  BTW; was that Brian or Bwian?! 😀
                  And let’s not forget the name of Pilates great friend in Rome, eh?

                    I’m here using a Live USB with antiX 21 and I’m setting it up with one of the flavors of Frugal persistence and see how well it goes today.

                    I set my inxi.conf to allow me to update it here, so this is what we have right now, including the browser running:

                            Well, since I KNEW that this system COULD handle 4.4, 4.9, 4.14, and 4.19 kernels PLUS 5.x kernels, I got tired of trying to find out what broke; having two other antiX 21 USB sticks, I simply REINSTALLED; now I have:

                            THAT means I can now TEST the 5.10.142 kernel here shortly, and I’m confident it’ll work!

                              Hi, All!

                              I was just trying to figure out how to pair my hearing aids (yes, hearing aids, not headphones) to Bluetooth on my antiX install. I can do that with my Android phone, which is kind of cool. It’s just like having expensive ear buds. But anyway…

                              So, I decided to give this a go. I have a USB Bluetooth adaptor stuck into my laptop. That was okay. Then enabled it via the Bluetooth thing in the Applications > Preferences menu. No problems there. And when I did a scan, I got three items showing up. Which was good. BUT, they all showed up as some sort of Hexadecimal ID codes. I couldn’t tell at a glance what kind of devices the three that showed up were. And the only one I have running is my hearing aid.

                              Is there a trick to figuring out which device to choose? Like is there some way of finding out what code our device gives out. Or is it just trial and error?

                              I did find one topic addressing Bluetooth, and here are my outputs from lsub and inxi:

                              And I also have a screenshot of the Bluetooth window showing the devices. So, if anyone could tell me how to make sense of those

                              Thanks in advance for any nudges in the right direction!

                                  I agree that the likelihood of the issues being specific to the 2-3 systems is high; when I was able to get multiple 5.10 kernels working on the Acer Aspire 5 I was encouraged; it turned out that the only reason that the Aspire couldn’t run wireless at first is because the USB I burned boots by default to a 4.9 kernel; it DOES boot on the Aspire but it only has Bluetooth and Ethernet networks recognized; when I boot the 5.10 kernel it seems everything.

                                  This helps me out as far as figuring out what is missing on the Dell;
                                  I found some log files; I’ll run 1-2 more ‘bad boots’ and then login with a working kernel once I feel better.
