The problem is notwith my application but with hciconfig and hcitool:

asus-931342168:/root> hciconfig -a
hci0:   Type: USB
         BD Address: 00:0A:3A:82:06:80 ACL MTU: 1021:8 SCO MTU: 64:1

asus-931342168:/root> hcitool scan

I guess it is a problem with the bluetooth adapter's firmware.

I'll try. Is there a hcid.conf reference? man hcid.conf does not show a 
inqmode setting.
