No worries.  TBH, a gui knob would be nice, but I'd settle for just
being able to set it manually for the time being.

No, I never have been able to.  I was playing with it again this morning
and I can't even seem to get a list of remote devices any more.  I know
there is at least one -- a mouse, which I am using right at this moment.

$ sudo hcitool scan
Scanning ...
$ sudo hcitool inq
Inquiring ...
brian@pc:/etc/shorewall/gw-new$ sudo hcitool dev
Devices:
	hci0	00:02:72:1E:E0:12
$ sudo hcitool con
Connections:
	> ACL 00:1F:20:0F:30:6A handle 11 state 1 lm MASTER

I'd guess that means the mouse is at address 00:1F:20:0F:30:6A and is
master currently, yes?

$ sudo hcitool sr 00:1F:20:0F:30:6A SLAVE
Switch role request failed: Input/output error
$ hcitool sr 00:1F:20:0F:30:6A SLAVE
Switch role request failed: Operation not permitted

Any advise how to proceed, even just to set the adapter to master manually?

Cheers,
b.
