Hi all,

sorry for the long time before answering, I wanted to be sure the
problem is really fixed.

Apart from the good remarks about the MX900 design error (lack of a
power-switch), the best suggestion came from Marcel :

Doing this :

	/usr/sbin/hciconfig hci0 noscan
	/usr/bin/hidd --killall

at shutdown time avoids the problem, not a single mouse deadlock anymore
since one week.

Thanks for you suggestions. I shall update my MX900 web page rsn.

Charles
