What are the proper steps to get this working?

I'm using Mandrake 9.2 which is based on the 2.4.22 kernel, all of the stuff that is listed here
http://www.holtmann.org/linux/bluetooth/hid.html I can do to identify my mouse.

How do I get it properly linked up so that the HID software will identify with the mouse and I can use it?

follow this howto http://www.bueche.ch/comp/mx900/mx900.html and make sure that you have the uinput kernel module.

Hi Mark,

Quoted 8 lines

Following that link, I read through it real quick, and that seems like it's going to be what I need(straight forward and not necessarily complex). Thanks much. But I don't have the uinput.o file that is needed. I followed the instructions here
http://www.bueche.ch/comp/mx900/bthid-msmouse_howto.txt which explain specifically for the M$ mouse, and one line specifically I followed was this

if you miss the device file, create it with

	# mknod /dev/misc/uinput c 10 223

Which gave me the uinput device I was missing. From there, I started over, re-installed bluez, but I seem to be missing something. Your kernel patch worked fine on 2.4.22.(or seemed to) when I get home tomorrow, I'll give it a try again. thanks for your reply.

the uinput driver is part of my kernel patches, but you have to select and compile it. You can found the option under input subsystem.

Regards

Marcel
