Using Nuggets

    Nuggets as currently implemented is fairly easy to use. Simply run at least one client-server pair on 2 different hosts. Currently, only Moe and Curly have the necessary configuration to support bluetooth. For this example Nuggets session we will assume that Moe runs the client and Curly runs the server. Firstly, on Curly, change the directory to /root/nuggets and then run ./runBrowser.sh. Then, on Moe, change the directory to /root/nuggets. Next, change the contents of the file called 'nugget' to whatever you wish the nugget to be and run ./runClient.sh.

Troubleshooting Q & A

    Q. Nuggets doesn't work!

    A. That's not really a question you know. There could be a couple of reasons that nuggets is failing to work, though. First, make certain that the hci and sdp daemons are running (see System Setup) Finally, make certain that the bluetooth dongles are actually up. To do this, type hciconfig and look in the output for "...UP RUNNING...". If instead you see something like "...DOWN...", then the bluetooth dongle on that computer is not up. To bring it up, type hciconfig hci0 up. Be sure to check that the dongle is now up by typing hciconfig.
