You'd have two rules doing the same thing (resume & addition) That's okay. Inelegant, perhaps, but workable. Besides, as we see below, the new rule would have to do more than the old rule. > 2.

So you'd want to delay for a second or so before trying to do the switch and check whether the device is still attached. > 4. You can intentionally run hid2hci to switch back to HID Does that create the same removal event? If it does then you wouldd be in an unfortunate state. The script would have to check somehow whether the removal was deliberate or spontaneous. > PS: Why, oh why don't people use configurations as they were designed?
