bluetooth audio (A2DP) for Linux

[piet85]

I'm thinking of buying a bluetooth receiver for my stereo cause I want to listen to music from my computer on it. At the moment there's a long cable lying across the floor of my living room. I think this can't be a solution for ever, so I look for alternatives. I got a bluetooth stick for my pc, so I just got to buy the receiver for my stereo.
My Question is whether bluetooth audio (A2DP) is supported by fedora or whether there's additional software available? On windows that's no problem, I just activate this service in the menu of the software that I got with that bluetooth stick and it would work, but how about linux? Cause I don't really have any possibility of testing it would be nice to know how it works before bying.

Fedora12: Just tested Plantronics Pulstar 590A, but just MONO output supported.
HS beeps as connection established for sound output. Probably you need stick Mac/Windows instead so far ...

Thanks for your answer!
Cause the thread is over two years old, I meanwhile found a solution for me, I decided not to use Bluetooth, instead I installed a 10m long digital cable and it works fine. Bluetooth was just an option for not having to install such a long cable.
