Ubertooth Setup

Once Kali is up and running on the Chromebook, the Ubertooth build guide is a good start.

However there are some issues with the guide and Kali/Chromebook,

1. For the Bluetooth Base Band Library (libbtbb), install the following packages,

• build-essential
• libpcap-dev

  apt-get install build-essential libpcap-dev

2. For Ubertooth Tools, install the following packages,

• pkg-config (required to locate libusb development)
• python-pyside (required for ubertooth-specan-ui)
• python-numpy (required for ubertooth-specan-ui)

  apt-get install pkg-config python-pyside python-numpy

3. The Kismet step specifies a download location of https://, but this fails with a SSL error, replace it with http://.

Kismet requires a few of the packages above; the rest of this guide assumes the Ubertooth guide was followed up to and including Kismet.

Spectools Setup

Again, it requires some extra development packages,

• libusb-dev (spectools is not compatible with the version required by Ubertooth).
• libgtk2.0-dev (required by spectool_gtk)

Once that is done, clone the spectool repository, configure, make and install,

  git clone https://www.kismetwireless.net/spectools.git
  cd spectools
  ./configure
  make
  make install

If everything goes well there is now a fully functional spectrum analyzer @

  /usr/local/bin/spectool_gtk

Run it and a screen like this will appear,

Click 'Open Device',

Select 'Ubertooth One USB ...' and click 'Enable',

And that's it, spectrum analysis via an Ubertooth and Spectools on a Kali/Chromebook.
