Hi Guys, I've seen at least one other patch that flew by added to CVS already. Are there any other objections that just haven't been vocalized regarding this patch?

(Releasing documentation, or doing patches themselves and submitting). Speaking of which, has my patch been applied to the tree yet?

Currently the infrastructure should allow a pairing that was set in Windows to still live inside the adapter and transition to Linux per my understanding. I'll see what documentation I can obtain from our Bluetooth Team that would be available for public release. No promises there though :) Mario Limonciello Dell | Linux Engineering Desk : (512) 723-0582 Mario_Limonciello@xxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: Bastien Nocera [mailto:hadess@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Sun 4/6/2008 5:42 PM To: BlueZ development Cc: Limonciello, Mario Subject: Re: [PATCH] Add HID->HCI switching supportfornewer Dell BT cards On Sat, 2008-04-05 at 10:58 -0500, Mario_Limonciello@xxxxxxxx wrote: > Bastien, > > I'll be glad to update the coding style to match the rest of the > source.

Do you have any documentation on how to store that pairing information inside the adapter, or does it work out of the box in Linux already? > In reading your question, do you have a problem with a particular > mouse &/or keyboard combo that the dongle isn't working 'out of the > box'? I've mainly got experience with Logitech dongles and Apple internal adapters that do the same, but we're lacking documentation to make those work properly. Any documentation about the Dell kit would help.
