Thank you Dick for taking the time to response. Two small comments, the
developers list is moving to linux-bluetooth@vger.kernel.org and the
hidd program is being replaced/depreciated.

I will try your python script, where can i find the upstream source
place? is it somewhere in the testing directory of the bluez git?

Thanks in advance,

Jelle
