Hi,

Thank you for your interest!.

My first pair of questions is:
-I don't know the whole set of tools that bluez-utils brings but i
found at least two for connexions: the hidd daemon and hcitool, both
have connexion parameters but:
1)¿which is the purpose of them?, ¿for what is every one? i couldn't
dintinguish which one should i use to connect to a device.
2)How do i debug the activity with hcidump?, run hcidump alone in a
console and work in another?, what parameters should i use?, -X -V -w
<file>?

I'm on a Debian GNU/Linux testing, Kernel 2.6.8-2-686. Compaq Deskpro
EN: Pentium 2 (Deschutes) 350, 256MB.

Thank you
