[Bluez-devel] hid2hci fails: broken pipe

[bluez.mexon@spamgourmet.com]

Hi,

My Digitus DN-3008 arrived in the post today, so I tried it out.  I
managed to get it to the same level of workingness as my DBT-120, i.e.,
I can use my bluetooth mighty mouse with the thing, if I first run
"hidd" manually.  The next step is to switch it into HID mode with
hid2hci.  But this is failing with the error message:

aeon:~# hid2hci -1
Switching device 0a12:0001 to HID mode failed (Broken pipe)

Can anyone suggest why this isn't working?  What pipe?  What's it
talking to a pipe for in the first place?

I also tried disabling bluez completely and rebooting, in case some
daemon was lurking around somewhere preventing the device from being
switched out from underneath it.  But that didn't help.

This is under Debian etch.  hid2hci --version doesn't seem to be
accepted, so I can't say what version it is, but bluez-utils is version
3.7-1.

Thanks for any help,
Mat
