Hi,
Based on the archives, about a month ago, support for this did not
exist. That is because of not being able to switch from HID to HCI
mode. I am using the keyboard an mouse but would like to use the
Bluetooth hub to connect my Palm T3.
Has there been any progress on getting this to work?
Is there something I can do to help progress this?

I included this fix an committed it to the CVS. Everything should now
work fine. Thanks.

I have just done so if you have a problem give me a shout. The only thing
I cant do now is look up computers on my internal subnet. I have no idea
how to fix this yet. I wanted to be able to control my slimp3 web
interface so if you get this working then give me a shout.
I have a three line script at home that works, so if you have any problems
then I will mail it to you.

Hi Terence (and Marcel),
I'm the maintainer of the MX900 page, so you can submit your changes
directly to me, I have some people waiting on my update.
Marcel, let me know when the CVS repo is updated.
Nothing urgent, my MX900 right button died, and I sent it to repair, I
should have it back in a few days.
Regs,
Charles

Marcel, et al,
The keyboard and mouse now work! The last issue on getting them to work
was I needed to umount/mount the /proc/bus/usb file system.
Actually just umount and reinsert the USB devices. I restarted hcid and
bthid after umount'ing and before the insert. Getting the right modules
in /etc/modules should be all that is needed.
I'll get the steps needed I used put together as an addendum the the
MX900 page referenced eariler
Now to get the Tungsten T3 talking (passcode not exchanging) , but that
a different thread.
Thanks again, Marcel, for all the help!!

Hi Marcel,
Patch works fine. But if neither path exist then it will silently
fail. while not having /dev/usb should not be an issue, but ya never
know. Presetting err to -1 resolves this.

I used the devfs path, because my Debian Sid has no default device node

I reviewed the code. I focused on this section of code in
switch_logitech(...)
{
char devname[PATH_MAX + 1];
int i, fd, err = 0;
for (i = 0; i < 16; i++) {
...
sprintf(devname, "%s/hiddev%d", hidpath, i);
fd = open(devname, O_RDWR);
if (fd < 0)
continue;
...
It occurred to me that open() could fail the 16 times and not report
that to the caller. So i init'ed err to -1. This is fine because if
the open() works then err will be set based on the ioctl() or
send_report() calls. But if open() fails all 16 time then the caller is
advised that something is wrong.
Once I confirmed that in fact I was failing when I called hid2hci I
went to understand why. This was I had for dev dirtree.
/dev/usb/hiddev
not
/dev/usb/hid/hiddev
as set in hidpath. So to work on my system I needed to change the
hidpath.
While this works on my system. What other systems might it break? A
dynamic function to pull the correct value? Or is there a naming
authority, a header file, where this can be found?

The dongle is now in HCI mode and this means that you have to handle the
HID protocol by yourself. Run the bthid daemon.

Marcel,
I finally had a chance to patch kernel and try hid2hci with this patch
kernel. I still got success. but hcitool dev never reported any
devices. I looked at the code in hid2hci, my diff is below.
I first made the change at 204. And found that the /dev/usb/hid was not
opening. Finding me /dev to be /dev/usb I changed line 79 to match my
file structure.
Now I get
hciconfig
hci0: Type: USB
BD Address: 00:07:61:07:ED:A9 ACL MTU: 192:8 SCO MTU: 64:8
UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN

But not input from mouse and keyboard.

if you want to use libs2 and utils2 from CVS follow my steps I posted to
the mailing list or take a look at this howto

at the moment nobody is quite sure if this patch is really correct and
don't break any other devices, but it is working for our needs and I
included it into my latest -mh patches for the 2.4 series.

Look at the thread:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=6881178
You need to patch your kernel for having hid2hci working. Note also that
at this time, you can only switch from hid to hci, and not from hci to
hid.
Hope this help.
Good day.

I am not sure.
I cvs'ed the Makefile. Modified the SRCDIRS to include libs2 and
utils2, removed hciemu. Did a make update, to get every thing. Then
made all the dirs and installed the executables generated.
Still the same error.s Do I need something else to get the USB HID
driver?
Thanks for your support!

Marcel,
Thank you for pointing me to hid2hci
I have downloaded and compiled hid2hci. (gcc -Wall hid2hci.c -o hid2hci
)
Running it I get:
trudkin Last rc=1 07:43:17 /space/Bluez
$> ./hid2hci -0
Switching device 046d:c703 to HCI mode was successful
trudkin Last rc=0 07:43:20 /space/Bluez
$> ./hid2hci -0
Switching device 046d:c703 to HCI mode was successful
trudkin Last rc=0 07:43:22 /space/Bluez
$> ./hid2hci -1
No devices in HID mode found
trudkin Last rc=1 07:43:26 /space/Bluez
$>
I can set to HCI twice and cannot reset to HID. Leads me to believe
that it did not take. I think all the right mods are loaded and hcid is
running.

Hi Michal,
> Marcel when will you finally release a new version of BlueZ supporting HID???
when the library is ready and all programs are ported to the new
library. I want to have the same level of functionality as we have now.
However if you find a way to retrieve the complete HID report descriptor
with the current SDP library, we can include a bthid version for the
current libs.

Marcel
