Thank you very much. This is one of the missing pieces needed to make the N900 into a Real Computer.

I'm not clear about this...

The modified evdev_drv.so is not safe? It might cause your keyboard to stop working? Or the driver is safe, but you might lose your keyboard if you make a mistake?

Can you install the new driver before pairing the mouse, or does the new driver interfere with the pairing somehow?

I'm asking this because it would be fairly simple to make a package that installs the new driver and enables BT HID support, but I don't want to do that if the driver may cause serious problems.

@qole

These are the steps I followed:

1. remove the "input" from /etc/bluetooth/main.conf
2. replace the "evdev_drv.so" file
3. move "transp" and copy "arrow" file
4. install the bluez-compat from here
5. install libxmuu1
6. paired Razer Orochi BT mouse (was necessary to run hidd --search on terminal first)
7. reboot
8. run ./showmouse

And done.

KingKobraone: you can try to bring up USB network (using Linux, not Windows) , ssh in the system and restore original evdev_drv.so.

Wish you luck fixing the browser, but I have feeling that this is a dead end for microb without patching/recompiling. Yesterday I installed mozilla 1.1 and with little tweaking it has mouse cursor in web pages. Mouse is 100% working in mozilla. If anyone is interested here is how to show pointer in mozilla(1.1):

edit

/opt/mozilla/fennec-1.1/chrome/chrome.manifest

and add following line

override chrome://browser/content/cursor.css data:text/plain,<nada/>

Sure same effect can be acheved in a different way (even maybe on the fly), but some with more knowledge on mozilla should advice how.

Re poll questions -

showing/hiding mouse pointer can be done automaticly trough hal fdi script(think so ), so when mouse is paired/connected cursor to appear (and to disappear when unpaired/disconnected). What I am thinking is a control panel extension to select for which BT device[s] this to happen, so no end user has to modify scripts by hand.

lag that some people (including me before bluetooth.ko patching) have I'm 99 percent sure is due to bluetooth subsystem

BTW did you try bluetooth.ko and evdev_drv.so that I am using (those from attachment)? If yes - is mouse movement still erratic?

Cheers
