Shame on me. Your remark about my empty link policy googled me to another hcid.conf, and I suddenly saw mine, which was wrongly configured, and worst, *hcid wasn't started*. I'm running gentoo, and for some reason, there are no startup script for bluetooth, so I was starting it by hand (hciconfig hci0 up). Now, my mouse isn't jumpy at all anymore. The only glitch left is that I have to press its "connect" button just after starting bthid if I want a link. Is there a way to get this automated ? I don't like to criticize about missing docs, because I have the same problem at my main contract as Solaris admin (too many things to do to write proper docs). However, bluez suffer a bit from that problem. They are loads of small HOWTOs, but I miss a sort of white paper to explain bluetooth in general. Any pointer is welcome. Meanwhile, I'm still ready to test new versions of bthid or its future replacement. Thanks a lot for your help. As soon as my last prob is worked out (auto-connect of MX900), I'll finish my "yet-another-bluez-mini-HOWTO" :-) Charles On Sat, 2003-12-13 at 20:04, Marcel Holtmann wrote: > Hi Charles, > > > it's a CSR, it's included in my Dell Inspiron 8600.
