The incorporated HID support is very different from what you've used now. It depends on a new kernel module called hidp, which handles the complete Human Interface Device Protocol. This module is not public at moment, because I am doing my last work on it so I can include it into patch-2.6.6-mh1. The final inclusion into the kernel will take longer, because for that the current HID parser must be rewritten to serve the USB and Bluetooth needs. However this is the first time I am happy with the BlueZ HID support and from my private tests it is working very great. I already played with seven HID devices connected to the same host at the same time. A full piconet of mice and keyboards and it is still working with a minimum of latency. Oh and btw the name of the program is hidd ;) > Great work! thanks! So, I guess you are now working on release 2.8:) You are welcome. Right now 2.8 is not in my focus, but it will come ;) Regards Marcel ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Sleepycat Software Learn developer strategies Cisco, Motorola, Ericsson & Lucent use to deliver higher performing products faster, at low TCO. http://www.sleepycat.com/telcomwpreg.php?From=osdnemail3 _______________________________________________ Bluez-devel mailing list Bluez-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bluez-devel
