[Pkg-bluetooth-maintainers] Bug#498040: Acknowledgement (bluez-utils: HCI device spontaneously reverts back to HID)

[Paul LeoNerd Evans]

Actually, I have made a discovery here. This is a USB reset problem, not
related to bluetooth. Whenever the keyboard/mouse disappear, so too does
my USB compactflash card reader. I just normally don't notice it because
I'm not using it. This USB reset causes the BT receiver hub to revert to
HID mode.

In this case, I would like to change my bug report to a feature request,
of:

  When a new USB HCI is plugged in and appears in HID mode, automatically
  run hid2hci on it

This would at least mean the full keyboard+mouse works again after a bus
reset, even if there's a short outage time inbetween.
