Hello List,

I have just migrated from Lenny to Squeeze on my MacBook, so from Bluez 3.x to Bluez 4.x:
I can no more use my wireless MightyMouse, and so far I cannot figure out how to get it back.

Any hint is welcome.

Thanks in advance,
Jerome

The main issue is that Bluez 4.x have a new way to deal with bluetooth apparatus as mice and keyboards:
giving dmesg and syslog will be useless as the daemon used in Bluez 3.x were removed in Bluez 4.x
On the other hand, the documentations in /usr/share/doc is very brief.

So, I looking for a success story. Note that I can find nothing relevant by Googling, so far.
It is certainly because Bluez 4.x was recently added to Squeeze, which is less used than Lenny.

Thanks,
Jerome

Well, I don't use a Bluetooth mouse or keyboard, but I do use Bluetooth
to sync my Palm Centro, and I need the dund daemon which has been moved
to bluez-compat, which I see also contains hidd, which may be what you
need. Have you looked into it?

Hello List,

I am award of bluez-comp, but this solution is just a postpone of the issue:
comp is a short suffix for backward COMPatibility with Lenny. If you read
the doc, it sound really an ad hoc soltution: I want really migrate, otherwise
I would wait for the stable Squeeze.

Cheers,
Jerome
