Hi list!
I have a minor problem:
I recently bought a Microsoft Presenter Mouse (I know, shame on me, but
it's the only affordable device with this kind of functionality).
So far, it works as expected:
- it works out of the box with the Microsoft dongle
- it works with my normal bluetooth adapter with some fine tuning (see
below)
- its special keys will need some additional configuration
However, there is one problem: It only works with deactivated
authentication and encryption. This is no problem by itself: You can
activate and deactivate these options in /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf on a
per-device basis but for some reason this doesn't seem to work:
[...]
# Default settings for HCI devices
device {
[...]
auth enable;
encrypt enable;
}
device 00:1D:D8:35:C4:39 {
name “Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000”;
auth disable;
encrypt disable;
}
When I use this configuration I'm asked for a PIN for the connection,
which - naturally - doesn't work. When I disable auth and encrypt for
all devices, it works.
Have I misunderstood the syntax for this file?
Thanks in advance!
Florian Philipp
