[Bluez-devel] starting order in debian init script for bluez

[Matthias Thomae <bluez@thomae-privat.de>]

Hi Edd, all,

I noticed that in /etc/init.d/bluez-utils from bluez-utils 2.7-4, the 
hcd2hci command is executed after starting all other bluez stuff:

case "$1" in
   start)
         echo -n "Starting $DESC:"
         start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec $HCID || true
         echo -n " $HCID_NAME"
         start_uarts || true
         start_rfcomm || true
         start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec $SDPD || true
         echo -n " $SDPD_NAME"
         start_pan || true
         start_hid || true
         echo "."
         enable_hci_input || true
         ;;

Wouldn't it be better to start it before rfcomm/sdpd/pand/hidd, to allow 
these services to use the dongle immediately?

I had a problem connection a Logitech-Hub-dongled PC to a NAP, and 
changing the order (and adding 'sleep 2' before start_pan, but that's a 
different story I guess) helped here.

Regards.
Matthias
