Hi Charles,

I have add this kind of problem with my USB mouse long time ago. This
was because I have also gpm working (mouse usage in non grphical
session). I you need to use gpm at the same time of XFree, you need to
search on the web, as there is some special config to do. A quick search
on google give lot of tips for this config. For example

Maybe you have installed gpm ?

I think as you have it working (maybe bad, but working), your bluetooth
config is OK (hciconfig command, loaded modules). For the bthid command
line, I have modified the /etc/init.d/bluetooth-hid file for having the
command line:

	bthid -m -l -s

I think you need CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV, but I'm not sure. I have it in
module. (but as I also have a USB mouse, I really need it).

Because XF86Config-4 use /dev/input/mice, I think you really need it.

Good day.
