Hello, Thank you for the information. Yes, I'm running Mate 20. I'll keep in touch. 73's. Sincerely, Ernest Bazzinotti KC1LKB ebazz@...

I don't know if they are still valid for Mint 20. If that's the case, you'll have to look for the bluetooth package names and determine the correct package names. sudo apt-cache pkgnames | grep blue should get you a list of all the available packages with the word "blue" in their names. Note that these same packages are called "bluez" on the Red Hat/Fedora distros, so maybe Debian changed the package name. ________________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of Ernest Bazzinotti via groups.io <ebazz=[email protected]>

Linux reported that it could not find the packages. I'll give Synaptic a try, however I'm not hopeful it will find it either. Is there a PPA or other repository that I should know about? Thank you for the reply and your time in this matter. 73's. Sincerely, Ernest Bazzinotti KC1LKB ebazz@...

Since you're on Mint (a Debian/Ubuntu derivative), you should execute the following command: sudo apt-get install libbluetooth libbluetooth-dev If you don't have these optional packages installed, you won't have the native libraries required to get from the plugin to the Bluetooth drivers on your system.

I recently did the upgrade to build 160 and it went off with out a hitch. I went to the plugin upgrade menu and tried to install the Bluetoothport plugin and it failed to install. Any ideas.
