after  attempting to  patching the 2.6.27 bluetooth changes on to
2.6.24[ie., drivers/bluetooth & net/bluetooth] & used the latest BlueZ
. Tested the same with headsets for music & voice(worked fine),but the
HID device didnt not work. We need to work with bluetooth on 2.6.24 as
there is a dependancy on  the others drivers present in kernel 2.6.24.
For HID over Bluetooth to work does it have a dependancy on other
kernel drivers/modules(apart from drivers/bluetooth & net/bluetooth
modules). Any clues in this regard will be helpful.


Thanks & Regards,
