This is because the Host Controller implements the necessary subset of the upper bluetooth layers and translates the HID bluetooth profile to a USB HID profile. In HID mode there is no need for bluetooth related software on the computer because, it doesn't even know anything of the bluetooth host controller. The computer sees just USB HID devices. > 2) I installed all the Bluez-liz and Bluez-utlis .... I have no hid bt devices, but i think you need libs2 and utils2 from CVS. Then you need to switch the host controller from HID to HCI mode. How this is done depends on the Host Controller, I think your Logitech is CSR based so you need the hid2hci tool. After switching the mode you have a full featured bluetooth host controller. Now you should load the matching hci module: hci_usb. The mechanism of loading unfortunately varies, but if hci_usb isn't autoloaded, then you can "modprobe hci_usb". Now there should be a hci0 device ("hciconfig hci0"). > 3) I try to do some of the hepful how-to in the bluez website but won't work > 4) I realice that I have no modules configure to make it work with the bthid > that says that I need uimput .. becuase in the syslogs says that I cannot > find uimput module or device .. So you might need create the device node for this device. Just search the mailing list for command with the matching major/minor numbers. What bthid you are using? You might take this as guide for getting it run: http://www.bueche.ch/comp/mx900/mx900.html Correct me if i am wrong. nicholas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market...
