Hide Forgot
hi, I have some troubles with my Bluetooth keyboard, a Logitech MX Revolution. It uses a bluetooth adaptator detected by the kernel as "logitech bt adaptator" (see attached /var/log/messages). The bluetooth service is enabled and active. When Fedora starts and one the bluetooth service activated, the Bluetooth dongle is considered to be a Bluetooth receptor (HID mode), whereas it should be seen as a Keyboard+mouse BT interface, as supported in BIOS mode (HCI mode). So my keyboard does not work neither in text mode, nor in GDM. It works anyway once connected to my session (using another wired keyboard), but the numerical keypad still not works. I suppose the problem comes from the /lib/udev/hid2hci utility, which doesn't set the right mode to this dongle. According to the #bluez-users IRC (Freenode), there are 2 possibilities : hid2hci is not launched, or hid2hci is broken. I attach to this report my /var/log/messages file.

I think I have the same issue with Logitech DiNovo Edge keyboard. I installed Fedora 13, but I can't login since the keyboard isn't working. I had no problems with this in Fedora 12. When/how is hid2hci supposed to be called? How can we debug this?
Found a solution that makes it work for me: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1469533 I commented out the udev rule for Logitech devices found in /lib/udev/rules.d/70-hid2hci.rules: # Logitech devices #KERNEL=="hiddev*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="046d", ATTRS{idProduct}=="c70[345abce]|c71[34bc]", \ # RUN+="hid2hci --method=logitech-hid --devpath=%p" Alternatively the thread suggests to change "hiddev" to "hidraw". I'm not sure what is correct. You should probably change "component" from bluez to udev on this bug. Ah, there is a similar bug in udev already: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=563688
i have already search in this way ;) and i was found the same problem on launchpad that solve it by switching hidraw to hiddev and not hiddev to hidrow ;) i'm not sure that it's due to udev ;) 3 possibility to my : -the kernel driver is broken -bluez is blocken -hidtohci is broken with no more information to my mind this package is the more appropriated
I had the same issue with my MX5500 keyboard/mouse combination curiously the mouse worked (after some i-can't-remember-what-i-did-to-make-it-work-again fiddling) but the keyboard never did work changing hiddev* to hidraw* in the udev file makes both of them work perfectly
the bug is been switched to udev :) i have write the patch for the udev package :)

Not sure why this is assigned to extras-qa, since udev is definitely not extras. And it should be higher priority; it is breaking people's keyboards that have worked for literally years (three, at least, for my dinovo?) Might be useful to know that this also broke in Ubuntu 10.04 after working in 9.[whatever the last version was.]
I have a Logitech DiNovo (first generation) it works with Fedora 12 but not with Fedora 13.
There's the upstream patch: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=commitdiff;h=2b463cb050cbf77d9c6b51e0f5a9d89bf7eb1bc3 Harald, could you please get this into udev?
Just to be clear, that patch needs to be reverted if i see it correctly
this patch is uneeded for fedora :) a reverse patch is already appliqued on the spec file :). it's just need to apply the patch that i write ;)
I'm using Fedora 13 x86_64 with a DiNovo Edge keyboard. For what it's worth, I applied the change suggested by Comment 4 (changing "hiddev" to "hidraw") and it fixed the problem. Looks like picking the right driver makes things work??
