an easy and consistent way of installing software ported to FreeBSD
Firmware for the Broadcom BCM2033 chip based Bluetooth USB devices. To
be downloaded with bcmfw(1). The ubtbcmfw(4) and ng_ubt(4) kernel
modules need to be installed.
NOTICE
======
You need to have the ubtbcmfw(8) and ng_ubt(8) kernel modules
in our kernel. This can be accomplished by adding the following
lines to /boot/loader.conf:
ubtbcmfw_load=yes
ng_ubt_load=yes
Furthermore you need to ensure that the bcmfw(1) utility downloads
the firmware into the dongle on insertion. This can be done by
adding the followign lines to /etc/devd.conf:
# Requires the port BCM2033 to be installed
# and the ubtbcmfw(8) and ng_ubt(8) kernel modules
# to be loaded prior to insertion.
#
attach 100 {
match "vendor" "0x0a5c";
match "product" "0x2033";
action "if test -d /usr/local/lib/firmware; then bcmfw -n $device-name -m /usr/local/lib/firmware/BCM2033-MD.hex -f /usr/local/lib/firmware/BCM2033-FW.bin; fi";
}
or alternatively load these files manually with:
cd /usr/local/lib/firmware
bcmfw -n ubtbcmfw0 -m BCM2033-MD.hex -f BCM2033-FW.bin
you should then see the following lines in your dmesg(8):
ubtbcmfw0:
ubtbcmfw0: at uhub0 port 2 (addr 7) disconnected
ubtbcmfw0: detached
ubt0:
ubt0: Interface 0 endpoints: interrupt=0x81, bulk-in=0x82, bulk-out=0x2
ubt0: Interface 1 (alt.config 4) endpoints: isoc-in=0x83, isoc-out=0x3; wMaxPacketSize=64; nframes=5, buffer size=320
