My hope that it works with a dongle 2.0 is because when I used to run sixad (before bluez 5.xx) it worked well. I've logged some data with 2 dongles hoping some of you guys can find what the difference is. Basically the controller is paired well in both cases, it gets connected and creates a /dev/input/js0 device. The problem with 2.0 is that /dev/input/js0 does not produce much data. Just a few lines at the begin and then nothing else. With 4.0 whenever I touch the buttons, more data is read from it. I've logged data with hcidump -X -w /tmp/b2.0.txt and then processed it with btmon -r b2.0.txt > b2.0.out.txt I've uploaded the 4 files here http://utente.xoom.it/depo/scambio/b2.0.txt http://utente.xoom.it/depo/scambio/b2.0.out.txt http://utente.xoom.it/depo/scambio/b4.0.txt http://utente.xoom.it/depo/scambio/b4.0.out.txt I've running these tests with Linux thinkpad 3.14.8-200.fc20.i686 #1 SMP Mon Jun 16 22:36:56 UTC 2014 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux and bluez 5.18 BT 2.0: Bus 003 Device 010: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode) hci0: Type: BR/EDR Bus: USB BD Address: 00:15:83:0C:BF:EB ACL MTU: 339:8 SCO MTU: 128:2 HCI Version: 2.0 (0x3) Revision: 0xc5c LMP Version: 2.0 (0x3) Subversion: 0xc5c Manufacturer: Cambridge Silicon Radio (10) BT 4.0 Bus 003 Device 011: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode) hci0: Type: BR/EDR Bus: USB BD Address: 00:1A:7D:DA:71:0B ACL MTU: 310:10 SCO MTU: 64:8 HCI Version: 4.0 (0x6) Revision: 0x22bb LMP Version: 4.0 (0x6) Subversion: 0x22bb Manufacturer: Cambridge Silicon Radio (10) nothing strange (or different) is logged.
