Hi guys,

Few weeks ago I bought a bluetooth mouse . Bring it home , pair it with my N900 (bluetooth input plugin enabled ), an then ... it was not working


So i start to playing with it ... and the results:

mouse pairs and connects ok with phone;
turning mouse wheel makes phone vibrate
moving the mouse while in browser makes cursor go in i different dimension
after several seconds mouse stops working so reconnect is needed

To make long story short:
Finally i got my bluetooth mouse working. To achieve that:

new bluetooth kernel module (bluetooth.ko)
new evdev driver (evdev_drv.so)

no success showing cursor outside microb (not tried very hard actually)

As neither I have time nor I am experienced enough with debian packaging system and kernel patching I decide to start new thread here, hoping that someone will take it from that point and will make some package in development repository, so all of us proud owners of N900 can use Bluetooth HID devices


So, if anyone is interested in continuing my work, I can post here (or in PM) what needs to be changed in source code in order Bluetooth mice to work
