[Bluez-users] Logitech MX900 mouse not working.

[Kim Pedersen <jungle@saphire.dk>]

Hello,

I just bought a Logitech MX900 set (Mouse, Keyboard and Bluetooth HUB),
and I am trying very hard to get it working. 

At the moment I am able to use the keyboard, due to the PS2 compability
feature, but I am unable to even use hciscan to obtain a bluetooth
address on the mouse. The only response I get from the mouse in X is up
and down movement, laggy and unusable.

I have read the mailing list archive and the Logitech MX900 Bluetooth
Optical mouse page (http://www.bueche.ch/comp/mx900/mx900.html) and
followed the instructions, but with no luck. I also tried all the tips
in the feedback section on that page. Google provided me with some
resources which I have tried, again with no luck.


At the moment I am running a 2.6.7 kernel with the 2.6.8-rc2 patch,
which was recommended on the Bluez website. I am using Debian Unstable
and have installed the userland utilies.

I have tried to load all sorts of bluetooth modules and compiling them
directly into the kernel (shouldnt matter, but you know, you get
paranoid). 

No matter what I do, I cannot get hcitool scan to give me anything but:

Device is not available: Success

hid2hci tells me:
Switching device 046d:c703 to HCI mode failed (No such file or
directory)


dmesg tells me it has found the USB Bluetooth hub:

usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using address 2
hub 3-2:1.0: USB hub found
hub 3-2:1.0: 2 ports detected
usb 3-2.1: new low speed USB device using address 3
input: Logitech USB Receiver on usb-0000:00:1d.2-2.1
input: Logitech USB Receiver on usb-0000:00:1d.2-2.1

Right now, this is the output of lsmod (Keep in mind that I have tried
ALOT of different combinations of the bluetooth modules):

I hope someone will be able to point me to a step by step instruction
set, or tell me where I am missing a step here. It is starting to annoy
me.

Again, I think I have read quite alot of documentation, but I could have
missed something. If that is the case, just point me to it.

Thanks.

Sincerely,
