Hi Folks,

trying to get my mouse to work. I did all of the apt-gets and config that I could find. If I go to konsole and enter

hcitool scan
sudo hidd --connect 00:07:61:4a:f8:26

My mouse works just fine. This is a Logitech V-270 using an internal bluetooth in my Dell D-600 laptop.

How can I get the sudo command to run at boot up or is there another way to get Kanotix to notice the mouse.

Thanks

RR

Hi Folks,

Me again.

Well last night I was looking at some how tos on scripts. So I decide to give it a try, this is my first... well third script. So please don't laugh too much Smilie

Code:

#!/bin/sh

echo "Press the Reset button on the mouse : "

read name

sudo hidd --connect 00:07:61:4a:f8:26 

echo "Mouse should be working now"

I just have to run mouseload.sh in Konsole after the computer boots and it works fine. I know there are ways to do this automatically but I'll get there sooner or later. I like the challenge of learning new things everyday.

Now if I can get my stupid wireless card to work I'll be even more happier (been happy since I have been using Kanotix 98% of the time on this Dell Laptop after a nasty BSOD from winXP).

Thanks

RR
