 |
|
Hello, people !
Just registered, first time user here so that's why I'm not sure if I'm in the right "section" of the forum 
Well...how to start...
I've discovered Gentoo some 5 months ago and I have been enjoying it since.
I'm very glad I did this choice and I spent all my free time learning Gentoo.
Well, although I enjoy it a lot, it sometimes just drives me nuts, as now - which is the reason for opening this thread,
actually 
I wanted to ask for some advices/assistance or any hints that may reveal what the cause for the issue is,
and would be very grateful if I would be pointed out any mistakes/improper approaches etc. Thanx.
The thing is the bluetooth stack, or particularly - Apple Magic Mouse.
I am not sure if I broke something myself or it was the Open RC-migration / the 2.6.39-kernel.
I use usually the ~amd64 kernel and compile it myself; after the 2.6.39 was pulled and compiled,
I noticed the mouse would not work anymore as it did under the 2.6.38-* kernel.
Well, I wanted to rebuild the whole system anyway, just for the sake of it so I started with a fresh system.
One thing that has been bugging me for the past 2 months is that one cannot just leave the system get build
(Gnome-DE) as before and find it ready after returning in some 5-6 hours (as it used to be before).
I noticed that building Gnome would always fail at some point, with the error always be due to Python -
you have to compile Python with "tk"-support as the very first step before building the whole environment ?!
Well, ok, returning back to the point
With the fresh system now, I was (am) very unpleasantly surprised to find out that my magic mouse is unusable 
I have been digging in the system for a whole day already, trying to find out what is causing all this.
The mouse is always recognised and visible, gnome-bluetooth/blueman find it, pair it and give the "green light",
but there is absolutely no single movement of the cursor when trying it ...
Below some details :
- using MMouse with a D-Link DBT-122 dongle, which works fine under any other OS,
I am using it under a parallel-installed Debian 6.0.1 and it works just fine. I noticed that
in Debian all important drivers (ehci,ohci,uhci,hid,hid_magicmouse,btusb etc) were built as modules.
- in Gentoo, I always use the default profile - [1] default/linux/amd64/10.0 *
- rebuild the kernel at least 5 times with different options - all the USB + HID + Bluetooth staff as either built-in
or as modules
- put all the bt*, hid* and usb* stuff in /etc/conf.d/modules
- rebuild "standard" bluez-version and the ~amd64-one, with different USE-flags everytime
- tried both gnome-bluetooth and blueman, also with different USE-flags at every build
- rebuild dbus, dbus-glib and hal several times
- tried with HAL and without HAL, DBUS is always there and started (should it ?)
- tried with moving udev to both boot and sysinit runlevels
- rebuild xorg-server and xorg-drivers
- tried with xorg.conf, without xorg.conf, with either device-entries for the KB/mouse in xorg.conf (which I found posted
here and there in Internet) and separate ones in xorg.conf.d/ - 10-mouse.conf etc.
Well... I ran out of options
The result is always the same - device is recognized, paired and connected to input service, but it won't move an inch.
I was also thinking about the "kernel hacking" options that I always use - could it be that a specific option
is "causing" the issues ? I think I use all of the options from this kernel section, apart from the atomic test...

I think I cannot do anything more on my own to fix the issue, I think I did everything I could think of...
Would you please point me out any error/wrong sections/mismatches or just improper stuff in the configs above, if any ?
I'm starting to doubt, that It's me who cannot get the system right
Any message/answer/help will be greatly appreciated !
Thank you all in advance,
Cheers

Oh, well... I can now confirm, it IS kernel 2.6.39's fault...
I removed kernel's ~amd64 flag, pulled the sources for 2.6.38-r6
and even with the most basic kernel config (just a couple of drivers
and blutooth-subsection, of course) the (not so) magic mouse started
immediately at Gnome's login screen 
No other modds/configs/or anything was done except for a basic kernel config.
I notced that under 2.6.38-r6, the two sections "l2cap" and "sco"
can be built as modules (according to official guide,too),
while under 2.6.39, these two can only be built-in [*] ?!
| Code: | # lsmod

hid_magicmouse 5119 0

mii 3298 1 r8169
snd_page_alloc 6017 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm |
Above module-extract from the currently running 2.6.38-r6
I do hope that kernel devs will notice and fix this bluetooth-issue in 2.6.39
Cheers

Same thing with the latest 2.6.39 kernel as well :
| Code: | | Linux BlackSun 2.6.39-gentoo-r3 #1 Mon Jul 25 23:40:04 EEST 2011 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9550 @ 2.83GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux |
Where's the culprit, has anyone got this machinery work under the 2.6.39*-branch ?

| I encountered the same issue with my upgrade to 2.6.39. I'll be sitting on 2.6.38 until this is fixed. |
