Hello, would you please help me?
I'm trying to get an apple wireless mouse working on the apple ibook
(g4, builtin usb).
I've got the debian bluez packages installed, actually
sudo apt-get install `apt-cache search bluez |cut -f1 -d' '`
(yeah, lazy maybe..)
and I've also got libs2 and utils2 installed from cvs.
Until I ran hid2hci I didn't see anything with hcitool, but hid2hci
seemed to work fine.
Now running hcitool dev gives me
Devices:
hci0 00:0D:93:04:19:15
I'm experimenting with running bthid (from bluez cvs utils2).
/var/log/daemon.log has
Feb 13 17:42:20 slowstorm bthid[980]: Bluetooth HID service started
but little else.
Once it got
Feb 13 17:25:20 slowstorm bthid[890]: Bluetooth HID service started
Feb 13 17:26:49 slowstorm bthid[890]: Connected: HID device (ffff:0000)
Feb 13 17:26:49 slowstorm bthid[890]: Connection failed: Connection
timed out (110)
..but that's all.
I'm also repeatedly grepping ps aux for bthid and it only appears for a
couple of minutes after starting it, then it's not there (so I usually
restart it).
I don't see any cursor movement or anything. I don't know so much about
bluetooth or about computers in general.
For a kernel, I use Linux 2.6.3-rc2-ben1 (on ppc).
lsmod indicates that uinput, hci_usb,rfcomm,l2cap and bluetooth are
loaded. I've created /dev/input/uinput with mknod as per
http://www.bueche.ch/comp/mx900/mx900.html
I had the mouse working under Mac OS X before I installed Debian.
What are the other steps I need to take before I can start using the mouse?
Thanks very much in advance, Sunnan

This can't work, because you try to connect to your local device ;)

the "hcitool dev" shows your local device. The syslog will show your
mouse if it is connected. Take a look at the latest posts on the mailing
list about an Apple keyboard. I think it is the same PIN problem.

No, not at all. bthid keeps turning itself off (silently disappearing
from "ps aux|grep bthid" after a while) and I'm not sure how to see if
or how the mouse connects to the computer. is the dev from hcitool dev
my bluetooth chip or the mouse? where will the mouse show up, under
/dev/input/mice or what? I don't really get this basic stuff yet.
I read and followed
http://www.bueche.ch/comp/mx900/mx900.html
and also read most of
http://www.holtmann.org/linux/bluetooth/hid.html
but I don't really know how to interpret it.

this looks much better now. Your laptop contains a CSR chip with the
Bluetooth 1.2 AFH feature. Very nice.
Do you got your mouse working?

the version of utils2 have a big endian problem, which I have now fixed
in CVS. Try your version from bluez-utils-2.4. Better you call it with
the full path "/sbin/hciconfig -a".

Hi again,
after rebooting and loading my modules (and starting hcid, sdpd and
rfcomm, the latter probably unnecessary but I'm erring on the side of
caution?), I run:
sudo hcidump -w dumpdata
but just get:
HCIDump - HCI packet analyzer ver 1.5
Can't attach to device hci0. No such device(19)
and it exits without writing anything to the file.
and "hciconfig -a" exits silently.
then I run hid2hci anyway, it prints:
Switching device 05ac:1000 to HCI mode was successful
and then I can do hcidump -w dumpdata
which gives me to stdout:
HCIDump - HCI packet analyzer ver 1.5
device: hci0 snap_len: 1028 filter: 0xffffffff
I had wait a while before it wrote anything to the file.
Then I waited a bit more, and it wrote a bit more. This is normal.
I've attached the file.

2.4-6 from Debian sid, as well as utils2 from bluez cvs. hciconfig comes
from that cvs checkout (though I have two version in my path, the cvs
version takes precedence, while hcidump comes out of Edds bluez-hcidump
package, version 1.5-2 for debian sid.
> Reboot your machine and show me this file before you run hid2hci.
I'm sorry, but it wasn't possible since hcidump wouldn't write one, as
described above.

I don't know what kind of module this is. Please run "hcidump -w <file>"
before running "hciconfig -a" and send us the dump. Maybe we have a big
endian problem here. What bluez-utils version do you have installed?

You can't rund sdpd twice, but for HID support this is irrelevant.

This is correct, because you have to terminate it with CTRL-C.

The Apple Bluetooth mouse expects a PIN or a link key even if you only
connect to the SDP service (security mode 3). This is stupid for a HID
mouse, but they did it this way. A working PIN is "0000". So I say you
replace your PIN helper program (from hcid.conf) with the following
executable script
#!/bin/sh
echo "PIN:0000"
and put also "0000" into /etc/bluetooth/pin. Restart the hcid and see
how it goes. If this don't work, run "hcidump -w <file>" and send us the
dump file.
