I don't know how to show how it was before. Now it shows:

slowstorm/home/sunnan% sudo hciconfig -a
hci0:   Type: USB
          BD Address: 00:0D:93:04:19:15  ACL MTU: 192:8  SCO MTU: 64:8

and I've attached the devices.txt that resulted from

cat /proc/bus/usb/devices > devices.txt

(The name 'slowstorm-0' above probably is due to the line
           name "%h-%d";
which I have in my /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf)

One of the more interesting(?) entries in my /var/log/daemon.log after
doing this was:

Feb 13 19:38:29 slowstorm sdpd[25047]: init_server: binding L2CAP
socket: Address already in use

hcidump -w dump.data

printed:
HCIDump - HCI packet analyzer ver 1.5
device: hci0 snap_len: 1028 filter: 0xffffffff

but never quit. I checked dump.data with wc from time to time but it
never appeared to get any largers.

I got childishly impatient after a couple of minutes and hit C-c. I
attached the file anyway. Is it supposed to take very long time? If so,
I could give it another go. Thanks for your patience.
