Re: [Bluez-devel] Logitech MX900 mouse with Dell Inspiron 8600

[Charles Bueche <charles@bueche.ch>]

Hi Olivier,

Thanks for your answer. I don't run GPM, so the problem isn't from
there. But you gave me another idea : I loaded my modules, started the
patched bthid, exited X, and tried gpm in console. I got the same
problem !!! The mouse is jumpy as well. I think I can now exclude Xfree
from the potential problem.

I guess bthid is producing the jumpy mouse. I tried to checkout the CVS
version, but I'm lost with autoconf and friends. I guess I will have to
wait for Marcel's new snapshot.

What frustrate me is that I got it working twice last week, after
unloading/loading stopping/starting it several times, but I lost the
order and options I had.

Well, we it works, we all have to get a good beer :-)
