Fredrik, It sounds as though bluez-utils is telling your dongle to operate as a bluetooth dongle instead of a USB HID dongle, I might be wrong, but it may also save some time in the long run for you, please look in: /etc/default/bluetooth For the following line: HID2HCI_ENABLED=1 And change it to: HID2HCI_ENABLED=0 I have one system which uses a dinvo set as USB HID devices this way and it experiences no problems. However, there is also another machine which uses an internal bluetooth adapter to connect to a different dinovo set, this machine has some serious reconnection issues which can not be easily addressed (the bluetooth services must be restarted in order for the devices to repair if the machine is left to sit 'still' for a while, even though at boot time and after hours of use everything is fine, just leavinng the machine can cause bluetooth to fail). I think it is perfectly possible that these problems could be caused by a driver or kernel issue in my particular case, I suspect it has something to do with the way the dinovo gear comes out of its own power saving mode not being very well handled by the linux bluetooth system. In any case, I hope this helps a little :). Cheers Ryan On Sun, Aug 31, 2008 at 10:44 AM, Foffa
