Hi!

is it right that the two components hidd (the daemon) and the kernel module
hidp (found in net/bluetooth/) work together in order to provide support for
Bluetooth Keyboards and other HID devices?
As far as I know hidd has been replaced, if yes with what?
And which role plays the Input service which is also an own folder in the
bluez-utils?

Anyway, the two components hidd and hidp provide HID support?
I took a look at hidd and hidp and found out that hidd listends for incoming
connections, if it gets one it forwards this connection to the kernel
modules hidp which adds it to its handlers. From there the kernel module
serves the connection and uses the well known input function input_event to
get the scancodes into the input system of linux.

So for a basic support of keyboards I only need hidd and hidp running?

Thanks...
