[Bug 444420] Re: USB logitech bluetooth doesn't work

[Jordi Margalef]

Hi,
I have a problem related to this bug.
I am using a bluetooth Logitech MX5000 keyboard and MX1000 mouse. I had to replace the bluetooth dongle/receiver and now have a CSR adapter. They claim this receiver can be dual mode HCI/HID.
I would like to use it in HID mode, but have tried quite a few of the solutions here in this thread and others but seem not able to change its mode.
Also, I am on Vivid, and see that this thread is marked as "Won't fix" for Lucid. Do I create another thread?
Here is my lsusb

  The problem is that the rule for Logitech devices in the file
  /lib/udev/rules.d/70-hid2hci.rules doesn't work.

  I've had to make a very small change: hidraw to hiddev

  # Logitech devices (hidraw)
  KERNEL=="hiddraw*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="046d", ATTRS{idProduct}=="c70[345abce]|c71[34bc]", \
  RUN+="hid2hci --method=logitech-hid --devpath=%p"

  to

  # Logitech devices (hidraw)
  KERNEL=="hiddev*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="046d", ATTRS{idProduct}=="c70[345abce]|c71[34bc]", \
  RUN+="hid2hci --method=logitech-hid --devpath=%p"

  lsrg
