Dell Wireless 360 Bluetooth HID devices not being remembered over suspend/reboot

["Matthew Grant" <matthewgrant5@gmail.com>]

Hi!

I know that this is a developers list, but I have dug pretty deeply
here and got to the bottom of what the built-in USB bluetooth dongle
is.  I have found that its CSR based.   Under Windows Vista my Apple
keyboard and Logitech MX 900 work and are remembered across boots.
>From what I have heard, this device should just work.  System is a
Dell Vostro 1510 with Intel Core2Duo running Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex,
bluez 4.22.  I also have an Intel 3945 ABG PCI mini wireless card in
it as well.

I am willing to do the hacking to get this going - I used to submit
patches to the Linux kernel and develop/patch network drivers for
Frame Relay WAN, as well as making the 2.2x ehternet bridge accessible
via a virtual ethernet interface - my email address was
grantma@anathoth.gen.nz.

Should I be using the module flags for a straight CSR modem?  Is the
kernel module btusb ths only place the bluez stack looks hard at the
hardware?

>From what I have found looking at posts to the list, the CSR dongle,
once it is set up properly - I don't mind running a CSR DFU firmware
on it - it should just work.

I am going to test software by using my old Logitech dongle in the MX
900 base station-charger.

Getting the mouse going reliably and keyboard is going to help with my
frustrations with the small sized keys on the laptop keyboard when
essay writing - currently  I am rebinding the OOo.org keys into an
emacs type of keymap.

lsusb and hciconfig -a output follow.  Is there anything else that may
be helpful?

I gather that solving this will help out a lot of Ubuntu Dell laptop users.

Thank you for your time. Marcel - comments will be welcome - :-)
