Summary : Put HID proxying bluetooth HCI's into HCI mode
URL : http://www.bluez.org/
License : GPLv2+
Description : Most allinone PC's and bluetooth keyboard / mouse sets which include a
: bluetooth dongle, ship with a so called HID proxying bluetooth HCI.
: The HID proxying makes the keyboard / mouse show up as regular USB HID
: devices (after connecting using the connect button on the device + keyboard),
: which makes them work without requiring any manual configuration.
:
: The bluez-hid2hci package contains the hid2hci utility and udev rules to
: automatically switch supported Bluetooth devices into regular HCI mode.
:
: Install this package if you want to use the bluetooth function of the HCI
: with other bluetooth devices like for example a mobile phone.
:
: Note that after installing this package you will first need to pair your
: bluetooth keyboard and mouse with the bluetooth adapter before you can use
: them again. Since you cannot use your bluetooth keyboard and mouse until
: they are paired, this will require the use of a regular (wired) USB keyboard
: and mouse.
