Yes, I tried the same -1 trick, but it seems more complicated than that. The event should tally with what is written on the keyboard, and I don't think that bluetooth devices can be released unless they are fully compliant (I have been reading up!). Plus, if Logitech can't get it right, who can? Marcel suggested it could be an error with the parser, but this looks to be beyond my programming expertise.

Also, a question to Mr Holtmann: The latest release of the Bluez package with bluez-libs-2.6 and bluez-utils-2.6 - does this negate the need for the CVS version for tools like hid2hci and bthid?

Thanks

- Oli

Hi Oli,

the libs2 and utils2 are the next generation and they are completely independent from the current version. Actually with bluez-libs-2.6 it should be possible to port the bthid to use the old library. I fixed some internal stuff and this should make it possible to get the HID descriptor from a device.

At the moment I am also thinking of moving pand and dund into the utils package to lower my maintenance overhead.

Regards

Marcel

In the past there were objections against it and at the moment I haven't made any decision. Please comment it with pro and cons.

Marcel

+easier maintance
+all in one included - easier for novice users when they tries find out how= =20
get their devices to work
+less work with packaging new versions
+less asks in mailing list saying something like: "What should I download t= o=20
get this work?"

=2Dprobably longer patches
=2Dreleasing new versions will be possibly more frequental
