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@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 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.
