[Bluez-users] hciconfig hci0 reset bug

So, it turns out that in order for any external usb bluetooth adapters
to re-connect to paired input devices on reboot, you need to issue an
'hciconfig hci0 reset' command after rebooting in order to reconnect.

More info can be found in bug #133690 on Launchpad
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez-utils/+bug/133690).

This bug isn't Ubuntu-specific since I have reproduced in Fedora 8, so
I'm posting here.

Simply adding 'hciconfig hci0 reset' in /etc/default/bluetooth in
source would solve this bug. Is this a reasonable solution?

What is required in order to get a fix implemented?

Thanks,
Alex (Jackflap/OdyTheDog)
