I just bought RTX bluetooth dongle, but it doesn't come with driver for linux. They said it is an OEM product. What is the OEM product?

I want to know where I can download a driver that allow me to connect this bluetooth with my linux laptop in order to get online through sony ericsson T616.

Thank you.

OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. In this case that means that the item was intended to be sold to a PC assembler and not to the retail market. Bluetooth is (supposed to be) a standard, so, you should be able to run it on any Distro that supports that feature. I'm guessing that it's a kernel patch.
