Re: Long delay to (re)connect a bluetooth mouse

["Daniel T. Cobra" <dcobra@videam.com.br>]

Hi everybody:

Following Marcel's hint, I used hcidump while the Bluetooth mouse was 
reconnecting and got the results below (here I pasted the dump just up 
to the point where the connection is established).

Could somebody take a quick look and say why there is a 4 second delay 
between the last two lines? Is bluez receiving the mouse name during 
that time? If that's what's causing the delay, is there a configuration 
option to disable requesting the name of a device whose name is already 
known because it was previously connected and is now just coming out of 
sleep mode?

I downloaded and looked into bluez source code, but it would take me 
weeks to begin to understand it. If anyone can give me a hint, I'd 
really appreciate it.

Regards,

Daniel
